Can USB sticks catch viruses?
Something odd happened to my Samsung YP-U2R audio player - every folder showed up as a shortcut, the folders themselves being hidden and their attributes changed to Read Only and System. There was a file with a weird filename I didn't recognise, as well as what appeared to be a .DLL file. Oddly, though, it still worked and works as an audio player.
I've managed to sort it - I think. I've deleted the suspicious-looking files and backed everything up onto another USB stick, but the folders on the audio player are still Read Only and Hidden according to Windows.
