2. Install the mobile version of antivirus software. Now most well-known antivirus manufacturers have launched a special target for MP3, flash and mobile hardware and other mobile devices used anti-virus software, such as Kaspersky, Jiangmin, rising and so on. Some MP3 manufacturers are also considering integrating their products into these anti-virus tools, and the famous MP3 manufacturer Onda integrates Jiangmin mobile antivirus tools into its own VX products.

Under the MP3 player root, manually create a file named "Autorun.inf" from the Notepad tool, so that some viruses will not be able to automatically generate "Autorun.inf" files under the MP3 player root directory, and cannot propagate illegally through the MP3 player. Similarly, this virus-prevention approach also applies to mobile hard disks. This method can prevent the intrusion of most low-level viruses, but if you encounter a virus written by advanced hackers, then use other methods to antivirus.

At this time we have to do is to format the MP3 player, in the format of the process, we should pay special attention to choose the correct file format. In addition, as far as possible the use of the format of the manufacturer provided by the program (the general manufacturers of the random CD-ROM or the official website are available), otherwise may appear after the format MP3 can not use the normal problem.
