Hi,

I just need to know why Kaspersky Workstation 6.0.3.837 or the new Beta versions, cannot catch the autorun viruses of external drives without disabling the autorun feature. Can somebody explain me the reason. I just don't need a solution, I know the solution. I just want a detailed explanation of this failure. Because I know some other programs can catch it. Is there anybody who can explain it?

Thanks in advance.

Hello, welcome to forum.

Explanation is simple - autorun.inf is not a malware file, it just contains information about executable virus file.
