Viruses and worms can be easily spread and carried on removable media like USB drives, Flash Mp3, CD, and Floppy. USB drives are commonly referred to as a "Flash Drive", "Thumb Drive", "Memory Stick", and "External USB Hard Disk". Although you are very good antivirus, a new virus can be one step ahead of antivirus. We can not limit the USB Drive, but we can avoid the spread of viruses and worms is through the USB Drive. So we have a little careful when working with USB Drive, a few preventive measures are the following:
1. Do not let your USB Drive into the autoplay menu after the plug-in, you have to cancel it by selecting cancel.
2. Log into My Computer. Choose a device with removable storage. DO NOT double click the USB Drive.
3. Start> Run> Type (drive:), for example, can be seen below.
4. Click the OK button or press the enter key.
Now you can view the contents of the USB Drive. Copy the files that needed it, do not use the CTRL + C. Repeat all these steps each time you attach a USB drive.
