Microsoft Defeats Autorun Malware

Good Day and welcome to another exciting installment of the Kesar Tech blog.
Hopefully this post can live up to the intro it just received.
Well, here we go:
It seems that toward the end of 2010, the rate of infection due to malware spread via Autorun was skyrocketing. So instead of burying their heads in the sand and  letting someone else fix it, Microsoft released an update in February that disabled most Autorun functions on Windows PCs. Seven months later, the results are in - Current reports show a significant drop in reported cases. - malware authors looking to slip your PC a virus via an infected flash drive had better look some where else.

For those of you wondering what Autorun is and how is it different from Autoplay, read the following link:

I could try to explain it to you, but I think the previous link does a much better job.
Thank you for your time and support. See you next time.
