If you are one of those people who always use your USB pendrive outside (Cybercafe, school, workplace) Then most probably your USB pendrive may have been infected by virus, spyware or trojan. Here are some tips on how to remove those sneaky virus, spyware or trojan from USB pendrive.

In command prompt type attrib -r -a -s -h *.* and press enter. This will remove the Read Only, Archive, System and hidden file attribute from all the files. Now just delete the files using the command del filename (e.g. : del Example.exe) Delete all suspicious files

Note : If you still worry of whether they are any malwares in the USB pendrive, just format it for safety reason.

What if I want to prevent such things from happening?

Well, you can do the two things below :
1. Restart the pc BEFORE you plug in your USB pendrive.
2. Install anti virus , spyware or trojan program. You can find a list of the software for free at www.download.com.
3. Always update your anti malware programs to the latest version.

I had confirmation screen shots sent to me. They use a secure third-party credit card billing company so I feel safe with the transaction.
