[QUOTE="hjlbx, post: 528425"] If you are connecting a flash drive to infected systems then there is nothing you can use to [I]absolutely guarantee[/I] protection of your system from that potentially infected USB flash drive. I know a technician that wipes his USB field drive after every single field call and re-copies data to it... his system has never been infected. But, of course, few people are as disciplined... That being said, you can use AppGuard, ReHIPS, Shadow Defender, and Horizon DataSys Rx products to protect your physical system. Shadow Defender can be used to protect all connected drives. However, once a worm executes even on a Shadowed or Rx protected system - it can spread beyond that protected system - and even infect your router. [/QUOTE]
