    We are running Windows XP and last week we got that Police Pro malaware which took over control of our computer. We ran combofix, which allowed us to be able to download and run Avast. We thought things were back to normal, but we hadn't tried to play a CD or insert our SD card from our camera since last week. None of the removeable drives (1 CD/DVD drive and 1 CD/DVD RW drive) or any of our card reader drives auto play now? :eek:

    We've tried right clicking on the drive and selecting Properties and Auto Play, but it still isn't working.

    Thank you!

    You're welcome :) The invite to have the computer checked out for any remaining nasties remains!
