All drives have a recyle bin and recycle folder but they are generally
hidden (protected operating system files). If you connect the drive that
has the infected files to your computer you can then empty these recyle
files using the desktop icon. But if they are infected files you should
probably take whatever steps necessary to prevent your computer from benig
re-infected.
