My computer always have virus because of using the usb disk.The usb disk takes the virus from another computer,and then it affects my computer. The more you use usb disk,the more chances of your computer infected by it. Do you agree with me?

No I do not agree with you. Don't use your USB Devices on computers you don't trust. If you keep finding viruses on your USB Device, tell your friend or whoever's computer you are using about it and have them scan their computer and remove the issue.

yeah.. you are absolutely right.. but you can prevent at some extent using USB Disk Security software so that you disallow USB autorun file to be run and help your antivirus to take action :-) but it's not 100% secure way..

Yes i do agree with you. SO it's better to just keep your usb with you. That is unless you want something from others then you would have to use it. However having a good anti virus can help you to filter out the viruses and make your usb virus-free!

Not if you are well protected. And if you use it only on safe computers. If you use it on internet cafes then there is a high chance that it will get infected. So just be careful.
