Hello all, I have a question regarding some behaviour I've seen while scanning ntfs partitions.
Using avast! 4.7 (home), I ran a complete scan on a ntfs partition, I think it was about 20~30gb and probably 60% full. The scan completed ridiculously quickly, like a matter of 2 or 3 seconds if not shorter, and the "totaly size of files scanned" was only a few hundred kb. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this now since I don't currently have an ntfs formatted partition on my system.
I've done some looking around and I see that if archive scanning is not enabled, avast won't scan ADS, and I can't be sure if it was enabled or not. I'm not sure if this would be the cause however, since practically everything on the drive seemed to be excluded from the scan. Is anyone aware of any other issues that might have caused this? Any input would be greatly appreciated.
