Free USB Vaccine

Due to the large amount of malware-related problems associated with Microsoft AutoRun, Panda created a free utility USB Vaccine,Only more than 300 KB,Protect your USB device.

The free Panda USB Vaccine allows users to vaccinate their PCs in order to disable AutoRun completely so that no program from any USB/CD/DVD drive (regardless of whether they have been previously vaccinated or not) can auto-execute. This is a really helpful feature as there is no user friendly and easy way of completely disabling AutoRun on a Windows PC.

The free Panda USB Vaccine can be used on individual USB drives to disable its AUTORUN.INF file in order to prevent malware infections from spreading automatically. When applied on a USB drive, the vaccine permanently blocks an innocuous AUTORUN.INF file, preventing it from being read, created, deleted or modified. Once applied it effectivelly disables Windows from automatically executing any malicious file that might be stored in that particular USB drive. The drive can otherwise be used normally and files (even malware) copied to/from it, but they will be prevented from opening automatically. Panda USB Vaccine currently only works on FAT & FAT32 USB drives. Also keep in mind that USB drives that have been vaccinated cannot be reversed except with a format.

For advanced users who wish to run Panda USB Vaccine automatically at boot to notify every time a new USB device is mounted on the system or to perform network-wide computer vaccinations via login scripts or other distribution methods, Panda USB Vaccine can be operated via command-line. Its input parameters are the following:

USBVaccine.exe [ ABC…Z ] [ +system-system ] [ /resident [/hidetray] ]

[drive unit]: Vaccinate drive unit

+system : Computer vaccination

-system : Remove computer vaccination

/resident: Start program hidden and prompt for vaccinating every new drive

/hidetray: Hides tray icon when used with the/resident command
