Do you have Spybot Search and Destroy? It's not really a big deal, just some program has password protected files that they don't want you to touch (I'm betting it is Spybot S&D).

Let us know the path to these files and perhaps we can identify why they are there.

in fact they were all files compressed and protected by password in the recovery of Spyboot S&D...i erased them but with two files i'm not able to delete.....
do you think it's possible?

since those files are just the backup archives of spybot s&d...they shouldn't pose any problems...it's quite normal to have files that are password-protected or whatever that cannot be scan by avast or any other av
