  Why does pen drive carry lots of viruses??😕

  We know that nowadays the most used device to transfer data is the Pen drive. When we connect our pen drive to an infected computer, the drive also gets infected.
  Also the autorun feature in windows makes it more vulnerable.

  A virus enters a computer only if you run it (i.e. opening the pen drive by double-clicking it executes the autorun virus if present). If you explore the drive the virus may not execute. Thus you can delete the suspected files (virus).
  With the autorun feature in windows the virus is more likely to be executed.

  A pen drive has plug and play feature and that's why it gets infected whenever it is executed on infected computer. but we have some very good anti viruses for keeping away that suspected files or viruses . so just play safe and install any good antivirus on your computer.(that could be AVAST,AVIRA,QUICK HEAL etc.)

  My advice to all is
  
  whenever you plug in a pen drive next time do not click on open the folder to view files or go to my computer and double click to open the pen drive
  
  first scan your pen drive only then use it after deleting the viruses
  
  You can use Avast for such problems
