    That's an autorun.inf intruder and can infect other devices too. You need Flash Disinfector.

    http://www.precisesecurity.com/tools-resources/adware-tools/flash-disinfector/
    What it does:
    - adds autorun.inf to root drives (C: D: and all removable drives that I insert into my computer)
    - this autorun is supposed to execute the wa6.vbs script.
    - it changes the desktop background to a blank screen after a new boot.
    - It adds the words Gdooey Mae in the Windows Internet Explorer bar behind the title of the current website
    - I can not open the infected drive by doubleclicking on them but I have to use explore command

    When I save the shortcut to the desktop and try to start it, it won't start. What could be done to solve that?
