I just found this link which suggests its a false positive. I think i'll be safe to ignore it but just want to hear your opinions.

Thanks

I don't use an AV. Use VM for the naughty surfing and a non admin account for everything else. Other than recommending installing AVG I can't tell you much.

Has any body had a USB virus before because Norton missed this and now both my external drives have this on I can not delete the drives as these have our photos and doc that we need.
I belive the ext drives got the virus for Laptop or from anitas usb work drive. I done a safe mode full norton scan but norton can not fix the problem.  any ideas

Try installing AVG and scanning with that. Norton is the sucks.

Steven Is happy because he has started to win he's corner in the fight against the USB recycler virus that he had on both of his external drives. Both drives are now working, just need to burn files to dvd then will format the hardrives to death does anybody know of a good zero format drive programme I have download one for Western digital. But any other programmes will be a bonus.
