    each time i plug my external drive to my machine..the welcome window says something like this "Run wscript.exe" ..
    what is it...is it a virus..if so, then why my avast can not catch any....?
    and if so..then how can i take care of this..?

    although never found ny problem with my drive..my comp also seems to be running healthier than me myself :)
