You could try:
Flash Disinfector (http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/Flash_Disinfector.exe)
or
Autorun Eater (http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Secure-cleaning/Autorun-Eater.shtml)
Plug the USB drive in and run one of the programs.
Note: A hidden folder named autorun.inf in each drive when run, this protects your drive from infection again.
After this, reboot the pc

You could also use this program to protect the pc you are using:
USB Firewall (http://www.net-studio.org/application/usb_firewall.php)

Let avast! take care of what it finds and be careful where you use your memory cards/flash drives etc.
