[QUOTE="RXZ6Q, post: 888461, member: 51334"] Your last quote just says it all. I should include this in my original post. It's just me being paranoid. In the article, they say that: "Storewize initialisation tool is launched from the drive." So formating and scanning the stick should be enough. But I'm not just paranoid. I'm also curious if there is some other chance to get infected just by plugging it into a computer and if it can be prevented. [/QUOTE]
