Ways To Prevent Malware In Pendrives (or Pendrive Cannot Open Normally)

  Does your pendrive cannot be accessed normally (by double-clicking) after your anti-virus removes malware from your pendrive? In most cases, it's because the anti-virus has deleted "autorun.inf" from your computer. This "autorun.inf" was rewritten by malware to put virus in your computer if you double-click your pendrive for the first time. Once anti-virus deleted that, you can't open your pendrive normally again. With Autorun Eater, that problem is solved.
