Most USB drives have a small write-protect switch/slider which you can use to make the drive read-only. If your drive doesn't have one and its essential for you, then consider buying one that does have the write-protect feature- USB drives are quite affordable these days.

You can buy this software to write protect a pen drive: penprotectorenglish.wordpress.com

There are, however a few things you can do, like ... * Secure your thumdrive with TrueCrypt

* Use a Registry Hack to Disable Writing to USB Drives * PenProtector - write protect a pen drive from viruses etc..
