Hi,
Thanks for this. I downloaded and ran Malware without the USB drive in (assuming my folders were somewhere in the Avast chest on the laptop) and it came up blank, with nothing detected.
I then stuck the drive in, I'm afraid hadn't started MCShield up first - it started scanning immediately, told me the drive was infected and scanned away. At the end it put up a log which said "traces of file replicators have been found!" and then worked its magic. I was worried it was locking all of these away, as a lot of the are irreplaceable (my USB drive is my backup) but once it was done, everything was okay and I could access it.
Except I still don't know where the two missing folders are. Again, how can I access them?
MCShield insists it's still running, so I'll assume it's swept everything, but...i want my folders back!
What do I do next?
Many thanks,
Adam K
