QUOTE(darrenwong @ Jun 14 2009, 08:42 PM) hmm....basically most of the viruses in flash drives wouldn't affect the current files in the drive. they copy another malicious file to the flash drive. i hope those are the viruses which are infected. sry... i think wat i ment is... how to clean virus of the pen drive without deleting the files in the pen drive wich is infected... sry if i have poor english....

QUOTE(darrenwong @ Jun 14 2009, 09:34 PM) oh...never mind...hmm....you mean actually in the drive there's a virus affecting one or several files for example? and you don't want to delete them? actually it's possible for antiviruses to clean the virus from the file(s), but with a low chance for the file to be recovered. cause most antiviruses put delete as the main or the only possible action in order to remove the virus from the flash drive. yup... that's the problem... i keep telling my mum... it will delete the files... she wont believe it because she send the pen drive to a shop... n the shop clean without deleting the files...
