The Internet Storm Center has warned readers to be careful if they receive gifts of USB flash drives, MP3 players or digital photo frames.

"These devices may contain malware -- whether this was intended by the sender or not," according to The H Security.

"Although applications on USB flash drives can normally only be started by the user, connecting any external flash memory device to a Windows PC can potentially lead to infection, for example when the product is a USB Smart Drive with Autoplay/Autorun," the article states. "For protection it's best to generally disable Autoplay in Windows."
