Need help on liberkey

[kronoSX]

Is there a way to stop a virus from infecting liberkey and its programs.I got the ultimate suite installed and would not want a virus to infect all 300+ apps,if i used my flash in another pc.
I did some internet research on sanboxing, vmware workstation and portable virtualbox,but i dont think runing my stick in these will help much as a guest.

I understand if all files and there properties are changed to read only..etc like windows 7 hidden system files properties,i might stand a greater chance of less infections.Is there an easier way or am i stuck on a type of sandboxing.

I work on alot of infected pc's.Sometimes rescue cd's dont get the job done.
I use drweb live cd,hirens,ubcd4win..etc and cant really trust these.
Your comments is greatly appreciated
Thank you kind sir's

Use NTFS on the stick. Search for all *.exe on the flash & set NTFS security permissions for all to read. Repeat for dll.

Since its ntfs make sure you always safely remove the stick.

VMs aren't really useful for this purpose.

Thanks havoc for the great tip.You mean for the library files i will have to set security permissions to all of them.Time to use D ole fingers

Ah not too familiar with this liberkey business, but it should work with any infectable files.

The issue is you can't remove write permissions to *everything* else the apps won't work because they can't write config files etc. Hence do a search for exe & dll, ctrl-a to select all & right click -> Properties. I hope that by "use D ole fingers" you don't mean doing them all by hand.

Yes setting permissions for every single file
