i have a file amvo1.dll found on my pc which has been detected by kaspersky
as virus. it had also detected autorun.inf in the root directory of all my
drives, and deleted it. this autorun.inf was not allowing me to open my
drives on double click.

mcafee, symantec or any other antivirus dont remove this autorun.inf file.
please advise what should i do to protect my pc as a preventive measure.
i have found combofix to be useful, but it is curative not preventive.
