resycled\boot.com - Virus ?

[bigboy]

Some days back I tried to get in drive C: and KIS2009 popped up a message that boot.com does not have a signature with two options, I have chosen limited.
unfortunately this file behaving like a virus and KIS could not recognize that. it creates (autorun.inf,\resycled\boot.com) on any external or internal drive that is attached to my computer. I deleted them many times but it still they come up again .
please if you have a cure for this thing advice me what should I do because KIS 2009 couldn't do anything

best wishes

This is a virus. Start Windows in safe mode, then click Start -> Run. Type in regedit and click okay.

Now at the top of the registry editor, click Edit -> Find. Type boot.com and click Find Next. Every time it finds a new boot.com, press the delete key and then enter. It should find a dozen or so copies.

Now, plug in any external drives or flash drives you have used with this computer. Open My Computer. Click Tools -> Folder Options -> View and select "Show Hidden Files and Folders" and click okay.

For each drive, open it and delete the resycled folder and autorun.inf. Back up each autorun.inf before deleting them off external drives, because they might be important.

Restart the computer and the problem should be gone.
