this is not a problem got to the internet properties/internet option and go to privacy tab and click on the block sites and in there delete orkut site in the block websites.
If the orkut opens in your explorer but you can't access your account for that the Google/ orkut suspends your account due to your wrong work against the terms and conditions of the orkut.

its actually W32.USBWorm virus which displayed such messages .

For removal you have to follow the steps

1) Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to summon up Windows Task Manager.
2) Go to the Processes tab.
3) Look for and terminate svchost.exe that goes with your username. Note that svchost.exe with the name "SYSTEM", "Local Service" and "Network Service" are all legitimate and should not be removed.
4) Now navigate to and delete the following folder if present: C:\heap41a\

The virus mainly spreads through USB disks so be sure to delete Autorun.inf file and any folder which has a .exe extension in the pen drive you use. Avast and Nod32 are able to detect it. Even AVG, Norton and macfee failed to detect it.

Hi Dipashri,

You can download NOD32 from www.eset.com and scan your computer, it will delete the virus.

If you want more technical answer:

Your computer is infected with the W32.USBWorm virus which displayed such messages while opening Orkut and Youtube. Here are a few simple steps which you can follow to remove this virus if this has infected your system too.

Open the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del and go to processes tab

Locate svchost.exe under the image name. There will be many processes by that name but look for the ones which have your username under the username. Just kill these processes by pressing Del key.Only kill those which have your username under the username and leave the rest

Open the run command and type C:\heap41a and press enter. This is a hidden folder. Delete all the contents of this folder

Open the registry by typing regedit in the run box

Search for heap41a in the registry by using the find command

You will get something like this “[winlogon] C:\heap41a\svchost.exe C:\heap(some number)\std.txt“. Just delete the entries by pressing the del key

Close the registry editor

Now the virus will be gone. The virus mainly spreads through USB disks so be sure to delete Autorun.inf file and any folder which has a .exe extension in the pen drive you use. Avast and Nod32 are able to detect it. Even AVG, Norton and macfee failed to detect it.

The above mentioned are not guaranteed to work everytime. In one of my machines, the virus disabled the Task Manager and registry editor also so i was unable to perform the above steps. In such cases, try doing a full system scan with Avast in the boot mode and delete all files which are infected. If a lot of system files get infected, then you would have to format your computer to remove it successfully. The viruse also spreads quicly through Flash drives and Local Area Network so always scan the flash disks in such cases.

With so many viruses being discovered everyday, it becomes difficult to protect your PC completely. The best you can do prevent such things is to use an Antivirus and keep it updated.
