PLug it in and give both your pc and the external a thorough scan with a good antivirus program.

Do you have antivirus software? if so, what is it?

i disabled autorun and plug in my external hdd .I tried scan in with nod32. The virus is Win32/PSW.OnlineGames.NMY. i did a search it seems to be a keylogger but eset seems unable to remove it.

Install McAfee Anti-Virus with latest updates on to your PC then connect your external Hard Disk...double click My Computer then Right Click on your External Hard Disk then choose SCAN FOR THREADS...IT WILL SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM.

No it wont. The infection is a trojan. It will take a variety of software to cure it completely.

Give it a thorough Mbam scan too. Google will find it.

I would also like you to download and run panda antirootkit from here - http://www.majorgeeks.com/downloadget.php?id=5457&file=9&evp=48f78333afefe88250d4d2dd09f65b17

PLease post the results of the panda antirootkit scan, the log from Mbam, and an HJT log in your next post.

panda antirookit all clean.

heres Mbam scan

The trojan appears to be hiding within one of your restore points.

I would like you to turn system restore off then on again and post a fresh Mbam log. Here are some instructions for doing it - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310405

before that, i forgot to post the 2nd scan. because previously the 1st scan is only on G: drive.
