Have you tried different USB slots ? Also it may be worth transferring the data to a new USB in case that is on the way out

Does the system behave when the USB's are not plugged in ?

yes it does do well when that one is not plug in ... it says to format disk before you can used.... and when i try to format saids i can't do it...... i think it is already on its way out......

: Keep Java Updated :

WARNING: Java is the #1 exploited program at this time. The Department of Homeland Security recommends that computer users disable Java
See this article

I would recommend that you completely uninstall Java unless you need it to run an important software.
In that instance I would recommend that you disable Java in your browsers until you need it for that software and then enable it. (See How to diasble Java in your web browser and How to unplug Java from the browser)

If you do need to keep Java then download JavaRa
Run the programme and select Remove Java Runtime. Uninstall all versions of Java present
Once done then run it again and select Update Java runtime > Download and install Latest version



It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system and to keep them updated.
