You are LUCKY that you only have 8GB of data to restore. Very likely, there actually WAS a virus that had transferred to the Verbatim drive. Find and purchase a DATA restoration software from a reputable website like CNET.com IF your data is worth the COST to restore it. These software are in the $60 to $200 range but work VERY WELL. Once you retain your old files, reformat your 8 GB drive to use it FRESH again! Best of luck!
