Do I have a Memory Stick Virus?
My dad was in China and came back and asked me to upload some pictures on my computer and send them to him. He had them on a USB flash drive, he said he had passed it around to several people there. Ever since then anytime I put in a memory card/stick theres a trash bin and a folder with some weird files that won't open up. I have a brand new flash drive and it even has it. I've never seen them before on the cards, but now ever since I used my dads card on my computer ther are there.
Yeah I've tried to delete them, they keep coming back. Is there anyway to get rid of them?

Both of the USB flash drive have virus, once you tried to run that virus, it will infect the computer. After the computer is infected and you inserted a new USB flash drive, the flash drive will be infected also. It is safe to delete them however, evertime you insert the flash drive in that computer, it is just keeps on coming back. Anyway, those viruses are not harmful but very irritating.
