Kaspersky or Nod32 are the best AntiVirus programs. Kaspersky is more for professional use but Nod 32 will probably run quite well on less powerful PC's .
AVG is the best free antivirus that I know of.
Make sure you do an anti-spyware scan too - spyware and malware will not always show up on a virus scan. I use spybot search&destroy or Adaware.
I tested and scanned with those antiviruses that you mentioned ,but they were useless and no virus found but my cool disk was infected yet,what is solution?(I updated they too!! :( )Quote:

There you go, but you STILL haven't answered my question?
I suspect that there is no virus. When you say "flash memory" what do you mean exactly?
Ok, at first my flash memory (=cool disk ,like a bigger floppy : 1 G:o ) has many folders, when I connect to a computer, suddenly some folder was hidden. AndQuote:

I was anxious , then I understood that my flash was infected by one unknown virus or worm …
Dear ben: I tried your solution but it was useless. In folder option and marking show hidden folder my folder doesn't find.
Believe me . I found a virus in my flash , my systems that Kaspersky and several updated antivirus doesn't detect it,:eek: Do you like that I send some files to your email so that have this virus (to sure that I tell truth?! :o )

To check whether your files are available, check the space available on your disk and if anything is used just enter the relative file in address bar.
Hi every body-hi ben-and hi dear friend BenReilly:p :
Are you OK today?:p
I asked a question about a virus that hide folders:"service.exe"
As you said I downloaded avast antivirus and scan my computer.but it's useless! In folder option :"dont show hidden folder" is active.and when I try to activate "show hidden files"
It doesn't do! I install several updated antivirus like Kaspersky ,Node32,AVG,. but they didn't detected this virus.!
Now what can I do?:confused:
If you know your folders that are on your memory stick, then you can enter the relative filename in the address bar and enter. For example F:\myfolder. After you enter the folder should open up and then you can copy/cut the files and folders to another place...
That is right,I tried this way heretofore but for music folder ,this way is not right.when I write filename of music folder in address bar there is nothing !furthermore it isn't sufficient ,maybe I forget filename,then what can I do?:oQuote:

If you can't remember the folder name of your music then you have to get a data recovery software and see whether it works...
Recovery software doesn't need.when I scan a drive in my computer with kaspersky,folder name is appeared in list of scan .thanks ben but you didn't understand my intention.I said my music folder when open there is nothing:in other word they are empty . And my main problem is not music folder,is virus service.exe that I don't have antivirus detect it and delete it!Quote:
