AVG anti-spyware is no longer provided anymore, it is intergrated into the non-free version.
The problem is that no many anti-spyware,currently, that can scan pendrive(by just right-clicking the mouse and choose "scan with xxx anti-spyware." )

Can u tell me which anti-spyware,including the non-free, that has the function of scanning pendrive as stated above??
I dont want to download and then only find that it has no such function, just like ad-aware.
How about spybot-search and destroy? how about spyware blaster?? they are in high position in download.com...
thanks..

Spybot S&D don't have the feature u asked (right click on file to scan), but it has something called Teatimer or something like that which resides in the taskbar and prevents essential Windows files being modified, including your startup list. That may be able to 'prevent' spyware from being installed. Not sure how reliable it is though...

The new 1.6 version of Spybot S&D has the function (right click to scan on selected files) you can give it a try.

try autorun eater , free software that check the autorun.inf file..

got others also.. try look around in forum

seems pretyy cool.gonna try it.

run it, it will stay in your system tray, scan and clean your thumbdrive from any infection when your insert it

Why no one asks how to immunise your pendrive? F_D can do that.

Scanning pendrive... Well carry a portable AV around like ClamAV or DrWeb?

ninja pendisk is similar to F_D but it sit in the system tray waiting for thumbdrive, ext hdd, to be plugged in.

i basically use KIS for everything
