I have a Kingston U3 drive I removed the Launchpad software with the help of the site. The problem is that when ever I plug my thumb drive in and copy something to it and then delete it; it never refreshes the amount of memory I have left I end up having to use the disk utility to reformat the thumb drive to get my full memory on it back.What am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated.

Make sure the Empty the Trash before you eject the thumb drive.
