KHATRA.exe virus in USB flash drive  

You can try used Avira AntiVir Personal, I'm using it and can delete from any kind of virus. When, you want to plug an device the anti virus detected it automatic.

hi anramn



well khatra in hindi means danger , funny ... well i have always heard of this mcafee being able to quarantine to virus but unable to delete it, that is why i don't like this particular antivirus, i am currently using avast professional and i am quite satisfied with it, anyways you log in with safe mode and delete that particular file manually, you know the location of the file right??

I got virus that creates folder in folder with same name and with .exe extension...Means If i got folder with name images them same folder with .exe auto created in that folder....which is not folder actually it is a virus with .exe extension....But i really never listen about KHATRA.exe ....may be you have to try scan with some different anti virus....or may be you try Avast anti virus which is good with .exe extension viruses....and also it is free...

u may be knowing this but still try it out .
start ur pc in safe mode and then run the antivirus.
another way is to format ur flash drive, lol unless u dont have anything important in it.


oke if this doesnt works then its time for some serious measurements .
follow the steps to first check wether it has infected ur pc or not:

1)go to task manager and in the processes select regsvr.exe(if found), khatra.exe and stop the process tree immediately.
2)next press win+r or go to start and press run
3)in the window type cmd and press enter
4) press cd.. and enter till u go to the drive in which ur os is installed.
5)now type "attrib -s -h -r khatra.exe" without the inverted commas and press enter
6)if no file is found its good that means it has not affected that drive .do the same thing for c:\windows\system32 and other the other drives too.
7) if it shows the file name the type del khatra.exe

attention to be safe do this all in safe mode.

next to take it out of ur flash drive :

1)insert ur flash drive while pc is in safe mode
2)press win+r or go to start>run
3)type cmd
4)next go to the flash drive i.e. if the letter of ur flash drive is "f" then type f: and press enter.
5)follow the same pprocedure as done earlier i.e. type "attrib -r -h -s khatra.exe"
then type del khatra.exe
6) and thats it the virus will be deleted.

to make sure the virus is no more in ur pc :
1)in the run command(start>run)type regedit
2)press f1 and type in search the name of the virus i.e. khatra
3)go on deleting the values u find in this context.

thats it !!!!!

well u cant always depend on antiviruses so i gave u the self removal technique. if u dont want to get ur hands dirty and leave it to the antiviruses i would nod32 or eset antivirus.or the best one is quick heal . well use anyone but it should be updated.free version of all are available on net and are all good.

KHATARNAK.exe is the one of the most dangerous virus that ive came across till date.
i tried each and every virus scanner but none was able to remove it.
atlast i had to remove it manually which is a real pain
try searching in google on how to remove khatarnak.exe and maybe you can stumbleupon some good results which will help you out mate
