even I have the same problem. sandisk 4gb one became write protected. Found no solution, in the end I stopped wasting time and bought a new (non sandisk) one.

DIY FTW!
I copied these steps from somewhere:

start>Run=type(“CMD" without ” “) enter.

follow these
1. go to C:\ by typing C:\>cd c:\
2. type C:\>attrib -S -H -R autorun.inf
3. delete the file by typing C:\>del autorun.inf
...
4. goto drive D: by typing C:\>d:
5. repeat step 1,2 and 3
6. do the same in all your drives (say you have C,D,E,F).
7. Close the DOS command window
8. Open task manager and “end task” the explorer.exe in the processes tab
9. From Application Tab in taskManager, select “new Task” button, type “explorer.exe”

Can you see data on your drive? I mean, can you browse files on it (If there are any files). Also, can you see its properties?
