Virus.Ramnit is a computer virus that can spread on its own through removable disk drives. The infection is configured to check for removable drives whenever it arrives on a new target system, so if a computer has Virus.Ramnit and someone plugs a USB drive into it, the virus automatically drops a copy of itself into the flash drive, thus continuing the distribution of infection. If you remove Virus.Ramnit from your computer right now, you will also prevent the infection from spreading further. Read more »
