As long as you used COPY & not MOVE - it should be fine to delete the files on the flash drive .

You can double check first by making sure the files ares still located on your computer systems hard drive.

If you know where they usually are just find it and make sure or use the search tool.

Unplug the flash drive so when the files are found - you will know it isn't the ones on the flash drive.

4G - it's the same way they measure hard drives - like a 350 G hard drive 4G should hold most of your docs & pic/videos- if it gets full it will let you know.

Some of the USB drives have a compression program on them so it compresses the files to get more on it.

"when I clicked on the ALAN'S FAVORITE PLACES thing in my Flash Drive (I wanted to see what would happen), a whole bunch of programs came ups asking me which one I wanted to use to open this folder."
just pick IE or Firefox which ever one he uses.
