I have an Intel iMac running Leopard. Last year I accidentally unplugged my Geek Squad USB flash drive without ejecting first, and ever since then I have had problems with a weird disk image on my desktop. It doesn't matter how many times I eject it, it always comes back whenever I reboot or even wake the computer from sleep mode. This ghost flash drive is completely independent of the Geek Squad drive which loads and ejects normally.
The disk image is called "No Name" and when you click "get info" it says the format is MS-DOS (FAT16). It originally said it was created in 1979 (???) Today I got sick of it finally. I scanned it for malware. There was none, and my antivirus software wouldn't delete it. Then I tried Disk Utility. I selected the disk (which showed up as a flash drive) and did a 7-pass erase. All that did is change the title from "No Name" to "Untitled" and got rid of the 1979 created date info. The disk image is still there.
Anybody know how to get rid of it?
