I can't seem to find any help on the internet or this website, Hopefully someone might hold the key to my problem.

I recently bought a few flash drives (F.D.)(Thumb drives) 2GB and they all seem to have a pre-install UDF( Ver 2.01) Partition on them with which is taking up around 10MB of space. (I don't mind this but the fact that I'm not getting full use out of these F.D.s but when you insert them into the USB ports this pre-install software always comes up and is extremely annoying. I have tried to manually remove this partition every way I can think of: Deleting the files; Formatting the F.D. and even trying the built in uninstall feature (Of course that doesn't work) and well for the formatting, it lets me format the main 1.9GB drive but the UDF Partition tells me that Access is Denied. I have also tried to un-check the read-only box under properties but it tells me the same thing. If anyone can think of a program of any means of removing this UDF Partition and letting me recover the full use of the F.D to just a basic 2GB Memory stick that I can add encryption software to that would be awesome.... ?Thank you ?
