Since I have a German Windows, I try to translate the Menu options as good as possible. I hope you find the menus...
Open "My Computer". Klick on "Tools"-->"Folder Options".
In the Second tab, there's a checkmark next to "Hide System Files (recommended)". Remove the checkmark. Further down the list is the Option for hidden files and Folders. Choose to show both.
Now you should see the autorun.inf on your USB drive.
In case the file is write protected, rightclick the file and choose settings. Uncheck the write protection.
Then delete the file.

2.use search........and remember to use advanced properties i.e to include hidden and system files also.
3.then try to delete it as normally u do.
4.if it doesnt work......start WINDOWS in safe mode and try deleting it.
