How do I keep this message from displaying everytime I plug in a USB flash
drive?

"Do you want to scan and fix *name of thumb drive*"
My 2 options are "Scan and Fix" or "Continue without scanning."
I have tried the scan and fix but it shows up the nexttime I plug in the
drive.

I wish I had the answer, but I've never seen that dialog. Have you
re-formatted your flash drive? Does the message pop up with different
flash drives?
 
I have tried 5 different flash drives, all different sizes and brands. I
have reformated and still get the message.
 
J,

Try downloading and installing all updates available at the Microsoft update
site, if you haven't already done this. Updates oftentimes contain fixes for
problems one has as well as for problems you didn't know existed.

No, it's a bug in Vista—and there's no known way to avoid it, so far.

It always reminds me of that scene in 2001: A Space Odyssey, where the
HAL 9000 computer starts cracking up and says, "I've detected a flaw in
the AE-35 unit."

Blame it on IBM :-)
