Recently i got a hdd off someone autorun jacked up to run something from recycle bin. I was curious so i used file scavenger to recover the com file that was running and saved it. I've rared the files up with the autorun.ini put a password of "virus" on it (plus comments+warnings) and zipped that up and attached it. Unfortunately i don't think boards allows rars and zips can't be passworded.

I'd like to know how to open com files if possible (decompiler or a resource editor?) but google hasn't given me much help with that neither has wikipedia.

Failing that is there anywhere i can submit it to for analysis?

You should remove that attached file though, somebody is going to get themselves infected
