   What is the probability of an external hard drive infecting my computer if it is added for the purpose of cleaning. I simply want to just add it to my usb interface, and run SuperAntiSpyware on it.
   Any help would be greatly appriciated!

   Then when you are ready, you should run our procedures on the entire system:
