It sounds like you're getting some "amazing offers on free whale wallpapers". Would I be correct?
Try running an anti-virus to begin with (I suggest AVG since it's effective, free and isn't retarded like Norton) and run a full computer scan. Can you give more detail in the meantime?

No no. not that shit.. I mean shortcut folders are automatically made in the drive, Like i insert a clean pendrive. it'll make some lame ass shortcut folders like "My Videos", "My Pictures" and other random shit. I delete them, they'll re appear when i access the same folder someother time.
I ran the anti virus scan many times. Though im using Norton >.>'
Example, like this one...

I've never seen this before, and I don't believe that it's anything to do with a virus however that does not necessarily mean that there is a virus on your machine, so you should check for it anyway.
Does this happen on any other computers with the same flash drive, and does it instantly come back right after you delete it or does it take some time (or a certain task(s))?

im certain the same thing will happen if i insert my drive in any other computer. Moreover, i got this thing in my system from a drive only.
Also in my C drive all the folders have a shortcut folder of the same name inside it. like , therez a folder named ag. Now when i open this folder, a shortcut folder named ag will be there in it.
i guess it takes some time for these shortcut to re appear after deleting .
