► Click start->run type c:\heap41a and press Enter. You cannot find this folder by looking through windows explores i.e. My Computer, as this is a hidden folder.

► Delete all the files under this folder by pressing ctrl+a followed by shift+del key

► Now again goto Start->Run and write regedit, this opens registry editor for you.

► Press ctrl+f , a find dialog box opens, type heap41a and let it show you some results

Well your PC/LP is cleaned up and now you can open your orkut account without that nuisance.

Make sure you delete all the .exe files which are present at the root of ur pendrive which got created automatically(which you never created). Rather scan your pen drive with a good antivirus.. That should allow you stealth your PC from the attack of MUHAHA
