Why not scanned?
« on: September 25, 2003, 07:33:41 PM »
Have installed avant after receiving the Microsoft e mail that is going around.  However after using the avast virus cleaner is says that some files(mainly Recycler files, Installshield, Delfin, Windows/memory.dmp and system 32/Shockwave) will not scan.  It does not say why and I am worried that win32:Swen may be on these files.  Also waht virus is win32:hantaner?  New to this so grateful for any help!

Thats because the files are in use by Windows, but why t does not want or is not able to scan Installshield files, i do not know. What is the exact Message Avast gives?
Hantaner is Malware "distributet" through Kazaa. You can find some infos here
