hello my guy, take it eazzzeeee, what u've described is no prob atall, @least the flash can still be recognized by the system, one thing you should be aware of is that tons of all the flash drives u have in lagos to day are from the far east, it isn't that these aren't cool or good but they are mass produced and mostly not according to standard. so u're LG flash could come with all manner of wares but if it not from the best locatio, there's a big probability it'll end up in the bin just like a lot out there and in a short time,

i currently a not too known flash which i got last year from a very reputable location and believe it works so well till date,

bak to u'r questn, that antivirus that came with ur flash may well be outdated, so as to prevently recent viruses, it has no mouth there unless you upgrade this antivirus and not all antivirus can take care of all viruses,

from the nature of the virus u declared, showing up some folder on your computer, you've got the stuff infected by viruses made by virus programmers who just want to proof skillls,

these type of viruses target your , exe files and works from there but they can sometimes be easily dealt with since they announce there arrival too fast, (like changing folders)

format this stuff on ur infected system and later on a clean one, and if the virus is changing stuffs on ur system, u mite have to format that aswell, though there are other ways to deal with these things but may be quite unclear

forget all those things that came with ur flash, dey dont do nada


the virus programmimg world is actually an interestin one, these are not viruses as wrongly put but automatons, imagine living computer codes, cooollll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

@fe32
guy i've re-formated this flash and it's logo came back then all of a sudden it went back to the folder logo icon.

what else can possibly be the next solution?

That yellow folder logo means a trojan is on your flash, please update your antivirus to clear your pc, because if your pc is infected, after formating the trojan will re-infect your drive.
