2996 exe files in startup folder

Hi,

There suddenly appeared about 2996 exe files in my windows 7 startup folder. The names seemed random generated, like 0A1RT4.exe.exe or somethign like that. They could be easily removed from safe mode boot. What kind of virus is this?

Thanks

Good question. Have you run a virus scanner (or 3) on your system to determine what has infected you?

Seems like a virus. scan your system using anti virus software.
