After I run Avast Version 4.6 Home Edition Virus scan, I get a list of 42 files that Avast says it was unable to scan. I have a Dell dimension 8100 with 1.25GB memory running Windows XP. In addition to Avast, I also use Norton 2006 Internet Security Suite, Spy Sweeper, Spyware Doctor, Ad-Aware, and Windows Defender. They all seem to work together OK.
Here is a summary of the files listed that could not be scanned:
2 files were:
Documents and Settings/All Users/....../SBRecovery.reg
2 files were:
Documents and Settings/All Users/....../SBRecovery.ini
1 file was:
Program files/Lavasoft/....../Ad-Aware-SEdefault.skn
37 files were:
Program files/Lavasoft/....../ending in .bmp
I would like to find out why Avast can't scan these files and what, if anything, can be done to correct it. Does anyone have any ideas?
