Cannot initialize my wd my passport

I have wd my passport and use it two years. Suddenly today I cannot initialize it. When using computer management and in disk management I see my disk it  is unallocated and when iI try to initialize it, i receive notofication from virtual disk manager : the media is write protected. I use Win7/64K. PLease help!

It sounds like something might be corrupt. Try TestDisk http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk and see if that fixes it.
