My computer isn't connected to my printer (long story, but basically I lost the installation CD), and I have to save crap to my jump drive and load it
onto my roommate's computer to print documents. I don't save anything from her computer to the drive. I literally insert it, open my document, print
the doc, and remove the drive.
Her computer is eaten alive with viruses and crap, apparently. (I didn't know.) Could I have picked something up there?
Can you pick up viruses from a jump drive?

only if you downloaded an infected file from her computer. viruses dont just "jump" from disc to disc.

LOL I think of these things like human viruses, obviously.

you can't download the installation inform. most printers these days have that option.
