USB-AV Antivirus is a specialized Windows security utility designed to protect systems from malware threats that spread through removable storage devices. The software focuses on detecting and eliminating shortcut viruses, trojans, worms, and hidden malicious files that typically infect USB flash drives and external hard disks. Installed directly on the local machine, the program provides real-time monitoring of all connected devices, scanning their contents before the operating system can execute any potentially harmful code. Its primary function addresses the specific security gap related to autorun-based malware and file-hiding techniques commonly encountered when transferring data via USB media in shared environments.
