help a MARINE, recycler virus, need help Closed

Question

Hello, 
i am in desperate need of help. im a marine in afghanistan. i have 3 hard drives all infected with the recyclebin virus. and from what i have been reading the autorun.inf as well. we dont get many great things out here. the only thing we have for escape is our movies on our external drives. i know of 5 other that have the virus as well. if there is any way someone could help. it would be much appreciated. i have tried a couple different ways i have read on here but it doesnt seem like it worked. if someone could send me a copy or email of how to fix it that would be great. i get internet access once a week. and not on a personal computer, so not able to download any autoeater's or anything. it would be great to hear a reply by then.  thank you in advance

new problem. i tried a way to fix it. using the CMD and task manager. but i clicked something on the task manager and now all that shows up when i bring up the window is the user, no processes or networking. nothing but the user. i cant exit it except from the task bar below. the only 2 options i have on the window is log off and disconnect user. any ideas?

For recycler issue


Click on the below link and download the file "AutorunExterminator"

Extract it --> Double-click on "AutorunExterminator" -

This will remove the recycler from the drives.

Step 2:

cmd and click ok

For vista and 7

Now right click on it and select run as administrator

Hello to you G and Sundar,

Sundar's solution is the very best.

G, to correspond with Kioskea, you must have Internet and the Exterminator tool is on the Kioskea download section.

Download it from where you are and then transfer the tool to a pendrive or flash drive, you can then again run it on the sick machine.

Regards

P.S. I hope your Commander in Chief will call you back home from hell very soon.  Good luck

It seems that four marines also got caught with their pants down with their portable devices! :)
