Just read this on Boing Boing, IOCell has created a USB flash drive with an embedded antivirus engine on it. It makes sure there are no viruses, spyware, adware or any other malicious software on the files on the drive, and also does a scan on any system you plug it into. It automatically updates the virus software when plugged in, so they will always be up to date. It also says that it does not have any conflicts with any antivirus software already installed on the machine.

The VaccineDrive is designed based on the C2 platform, an IOCELLs patented technology for the USB drive which is world’s first networkability platform for the USB drive which consists of its protocols, service server, re-defined flash memory structure, APIs and SDK. It enables consumers to securely store, access and control their personal information and applications practically anytime and anywhere through the Internet. Source: Aving.net

We Say: If this works this will be great, I’ll buy one for everyone in my family. Of course, there is no price listed, it does not say whether you will have to pay for future updates or if there will be any other related fee’s. The size of the drives range from 128MB to 2GB.
