Dane 2gb memory stick 'write protected'
I just bought a Dane 2gb memory stick from Target. Used it back and forth between two laptops to tranfer files. After about the third or fourth transfer I can't delete the files on the memory stick because it is write protected. There isn't anything on the memory stick to slide, push, move in anyway that would make it write protected. How do I get it to work?
