You may be having modem driver on your flash disk that are saved as auto play files and that is why  they are executing automatically when you insert the flash disk to your computer. You will therefore need to do the following to correct that problem so that the drivers do not start installing automatically.

• You will need to open the flash disk and look for the folder that has the modem drivers, and then you will need to delete it automatically.
• In case the file refuses to be deleted, then you will need to format the flash disk to as to remove that modem driver, but you will need to backup the important files that you do not want to loose from the flash disk.

I think your pc have some virus. So you face this problem. Some days ago I also face same problem.

So I just say what I done.

First time I setup windows XP, but problem couldn't solve. I did it 3 time but didn't get anything. Then my brother suggest me to format the hard disk. I did it and solved the problem.

your problem like my problem. But I think your problem solved by setup windows XP. If don't solve, nothing to do without formatting hard disk.

wish you to solve the problem.
