the last entry on the report is

C:\RECYCLER\S-1-5-21-2646752555-2703944788-1453689397-1005\Dc16.SBS\UnnamedStream_1
  • is OK

I found the file in recycler(NPROTECT) and it is deleted files and folders from the recycle bin. I was unable to delete it...says it is in use by another person or program.
I also have a folder called NTDETECT.COM which shows to be a dos application but when clicked on it it says that it is not suitable for running dos or window applications. I sent it to the recycle bin despite the warning that it is a system file.

If I do not scan the archive the scan works just fine.

This is getting interesting. How to I get rid of these backed up, deleted files?

I'm such a dummy with these things but I am learning. Again, thank you very much.

 :o I did a search NTDETECT and when I found out what it was I restored it. All is well. Almost anyway.  :P

One more stupid question please. I researched NPROTECT and found out how to remove it.  Will I delete the recycle bin if I delete NPROTECT? (Feel free to laugh if you want) I just want to be sure.

Okay, I lied  :-\, one more stupid question. If I am right about this situation. How did I get NPROTECT anyway? I am sure I did not download it. Norton av had me in fits on my laptop, I sure wouldn't download any of their stuff.

You folks have been the best. I can't thank you enough for your time and effort.
