Hello ?,
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
 
If your USB Drive is infected with autorun.inf virus, whenever you insert the USB stick virus files start to execute and infect your PC, it further replicates itself onto the PC by creating a number of copies of autorun.inf and .exe files on all drives of your PC.
 
If this virus is executed Webroot will stop it. ? or ?can you confirm this?
 
If you have this infection then please contact Webroot Support. This is a free service with an active subscription.

Hope this helps?

Hello ?,
 
The file would still have to execute and that is where it would be blocked by Webroot.
 
Are you currently experiencing an issue that you believe to be threat related?
