find /media/New\ Volume/ -size 1132193c -name *.exe -exec rm {} \;

Use this short version to find exe files in “New Volume” with size 1.1MB (in my case) and delete them.

@Anish:
That virus was very common in my college during the final years. People would be running around with their thumb drives fully infested with viruses. Sometimes setup programs will be rewritten with this virus. We used to delete it using a Mac at that time.
