I am using a windows 7 operated laptop and I am experiencinga bit of problem now.
It somehow got to my laptop through my friend pendrive.
I used usb disk security but it didnt recognise it and microsoft security essentials didnt find it.
My problem:Two files namely"Photo.exe' and "Windows"(A notepad like icon) pops in every drive when i start my computer. When i delete it, it again pops on refreshing. My friend adviced me to go to task manager and end its process and then follow the deletetion. It was successful but when i restart, it again comes back.

Is it harmfull?
What should i do?

    You should let Avast have a shot at fixing it.

    Use HijackThis <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/hjt/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HiJackThis download | SourceForge.net</a>
    analyse and check whatever seems suspicious and fix it. This will fix the malware program with is causing the issue and ban it to run automatically ,then use a good antivirus program to clean PC.

    Caution:If you checked a trusted program to fix then after fixing that program may not automatically start with windows boot.
