I have a mp3 player which I use for storing work (word documents), music and pictures. I noticed a message appear on the computer saying 'threat detected'. i ignored it thinking it was minor. the next time i tried accessing the mp3 player from several computers but the compters will not recognize it yet still the display light on the mp3 player still works indicating it is connected. i suspect this is to do with the virus threat. how would i fix this problem?

It's possible that your antivirus locked your player as a precaution to prevent the dissemination of the detected treat.

Connect the player to the computer that detected the possible treat.
Have the antivirus perform a complete scan of the device, and let it clean anything it may find.

NO virus is a "minor" thing!
