 Bitdefender USB Immunizer is a freeware utility to immunize USB storage devices or SD cards against infections with autorun-based malware.Autorun based viruses and malwares are one of the most common issues faced by USB pen drives when using on public computers.

Protect your USB from those infection with USB Immunizer.This utilty is a very good alternative for Panda Security’s USB Vaccine.

This small utility is divided in two sections.

1. The Immunize option allows you to immunize your USB storage device or SD card against infections with autorun-based malware. Even if your storage device has been plugged into an infected computer, the piece of malware will be unable to create its autorun.inf file, thus annihilating any chance of auto-launching itself.

2.
The Immunize Computer slider allows you to toggle the autorun feature On or Off for any removable media (except for CD/DVD-ROM devices). If you accidentally plug in an infected USB drive that has not been immunized, the computer will not auto-execute the piece of malware located on the USB storage device.
