Defend against USB infection – Autorun Eater

In the current day and age of technology, everyone uses USB sticks to carry information & data virtually.   The most advanced known malware is Stuxnet, and the main way Stuxnet spread from computer to computer was via USB thumb drives.

Malware programmers have been using this method for years, and it is hard to defend against these kinds of security risks.

Autorun Eater runs in the background of your computer and scans autorun.inf files which are the config files that have the ability to run malware hidden on flash drives/phones or any other memory-enabled device.  This tool can be helpful to defend against these kinds of attacks.
