Hi all,
Have been running the beta of XP-64 bit build 1218 (aka 2003 x64), and love the operating system, but have been unable to find a realtime AV scanner to suit.
I found your avast 4 server edition trial which I have downloaded and installed (no issues) and appears to be doing the realtime AV scanning etc, but when I did a full scan over my hard drive seems to be scanning every file as 'unable to scan: internal program error'
Interestingly enough, some of these files are text files that I can guarantee are not in use or locked when avast tries to scan them.
Any ideas why this would be the case - I have read through your forums and found some indication that this is normal with system files etc; but I would not have expected it to be normal with every file on my disk.
BTW, I am running a RAID array as my primary partition.
Also, when I run the 'avast virus cleaner tool' it seems to NOT bring up these errors
- just scans my whole drive with no errors.
Is there a difference between performing a full system scan by: (a) clicking on 'Tasks' under folders and then using the 'scan: local disks' option or,
(b) clicking on 'File' then 'Start avast virus cleaner'??
BTW - option (a) fails on the 'Disk 0 Master boot record' if this helps.....
Regards,
Michael
