to remove the restrictions made by the virus.

2. Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to open task manager.
On the processes tab find the following running processes:

Close the Task Manager.

3. Click Start>Run and Type Regedit.
Press Ctrl-F and find the following registry keys.

Right Click on the value and click delete.
After finding one entry, Press F3 to continue the search.

4. After you delete those registry entries,
Goto Start>Search>Click All files and folders,
on the more advanced options put a check
on search system folders, hidden, and subfolders.
Enter these as keywords, and delete those files if found.

type these keyword, *.exe.
On the results panel, sort it by clicking the size field.
Any file that has a folder icon, a detail that tells it is an application
and with a filesize of only 245kb, right click and delete all of them.

6. Restart your PC. Test if your PC is running normal again and no
SSCVIIHOST.exe is running by running the task manager. Ctrl-Alt-Del.
If the virus is still in your PC, it means you missed a registry entry.
Do the steps again to clear it. Make sure you do it one by one.

PREVENTION

When opening your USB Disk do not double click on it, instead use the
folder options to navigate it. If your antivirus does not detect this type
of virus, I recommend Avira Free Personal Edition Antivirus,
it detects most of the USB viruses today.

Hope my guide helped you.
