HOW TO LOCATE VIRUS WITHOUT SOFTWARE

Steps
# '''Go hit start'''
# Than click on Run
# In the search-box type in '''cmd.exe'''
# When you click on OK a windows should come up similar to this
# First, type in the '''Infected Drive''' such as for example: ''dir/p C:''
# DON'T HIT ENTER YET! Type in the end switch such as  s - h *. * /s /d and press {{keypress|Enter}}
# The command prompt will load all the files in your drive. If you see anything suspicious for example: Autorun.inf or a .exe file. These files you need to watch out for
# If you see the .exe and the autorun.inf than you have just found a virus file
# Write down the program's name and where the program is located.
# Rename the ''Autorun.inf'' so you can open it without activating the virus. Rename it as a rar. extension.
# Go to start, and double click the '''My computer''' icon.
# Select the tainted drive, that has the infected file. Find the program directory that contains autorun.inf.
# Right-click on the file you renamed "virusfile" and choose "Delete."
#  Right-click on the ".exe" file and choose "Delete." You have now removed the virus from your computer's hard drive.
