Is it possible - using an infected computer - to infect external memory?
Does it make a difference which kind of external memory is used? (F.e.: external hard drives can be infected but SD-cards/USB-sticks cann't)
Does it make a difference which virus(ses) is (are) on the computer to know whether or not which kind of external memory could get infected?
Does it make a difference which kind of files were transferred? (F.e.: ".jp(e)g" or ".mov" or ".txt" are transferrable without any risk, but ".exe" could be dangerous)
Does it make a difference what is done? (F.e.: just copying cann't harm, but once opening/executing/... external memory could get infected)
Anything else making a possible difference?
Does it make a difference in which mode you start the computer? If you start in Safe Mode you're safe?
