I had a similar 'write protect' problem for my EMTEC 16Gb pen drive after it got heavily infected with virus. I tried many tricks outlined here, and nothing worked. Downloaded 'restore' utility from EMTEC website and installed it. This utility has two options - format, and restore. Format didn't work. But 'restore' worked and my pen drive is now initialized and has become usable. Hope this information may help.

I have the same problem with my 4GB USB stick. I searched for weeks and tried everything whats out there. And I came to a very good comment from a guy who was writing in forum. he said: "guys 4GB usb sticks are like, what 5$ ?!!" and made me think, with all the time I wasted on finding solution, I could have bought maybe 6 or 10 same sticks. I think will make you think twice. :)
