This is a very useful feature. These days data
protection is very important where anyone can
connect USB to your PC or company PC and download
all the information on the drive and take away.
This unauthorized access is now manageable using
a password. This feature can totally secure
your PC from unwanted programs running on your
PC from USB device.
Autorun.inf Block:
The AutoRun function in Windows can launch installers
and other programs automatically when you insert
a CD or flash drive, but this convenience poses
a serious security risk. Every recent version
of Windows has features known as AutoPlay and
AutoRun. These functions are designed to launch
applications automatically from an external
device containing the necessary AutoRun information.
This is what causes an installer window to pop
up when you insert a software disc into your
CD or DVD drive, for example, or makes a pop-up
menu icon appear in the taskbar tray when you
insert a USB flash drive.
However convenient this might be, unfortunately,
AutoRun also opens a huge door for viruses,
Trojan horses, and worms. All it takes is a
USB flash drive with an autorun.inf file and
an executable in its root. Once inserted, a
worm launched in this manner can infect every
disk partition it finds, jumping from computer
to computer as network users connect to an infected
drive.
USB Manager allows you to block autorun automatically
so that you have control over when contents
of USB drive run on your PC or not.
Set / Reset Password Protection:
When you set the password in Set / Reset Password
Protection section then as soon as you attaches
a removable device to the PC; it will ask for
password to open Removable Device Scan window.
If you want to remove Password then click on Remove Password button
