i'd worry that your Anti-Virus Software hadn't dealt with those already, i've always thought a virus scan was to catch any that slipped under the radar, but 551 files? The very few times i've encountered a virus it's been quarantined and dealt with right away.

Hell that's a truely infected system
there has to be some mistake, surely
When was the last time you checked?
Did you get them quickly?

Rather you than me mate.

this is proof that you need to AV scan your computer at least once a week

hang on: 543 cleaned + 7 deleted, doesn't = 551 infected

well after you replace it scan it again cause it may have already infected other files.plus warn everyone in your email lists cause they are likely infected too

Only 39461 files scanned??

When I run a scan it checks over 200,000 files. :o

Either you don't have much on your system, or it's not checking very deep.

there isn't that much on my system but it's checking every directry

You need to get a real time virus scanner.

554 files infected hahaha thats nothing compared to mine


i had every single file in my hard drive infected about 44,000 files includiong my

temporary internet files but they couldnt infect my c:\windows folder or my

c:\winnt folder because they both have 1,024 BIT incription so you cant modifie

and thing in those folder without know 6 different passwords

the only reason i had so many infected becasue it was a spreader virus and i had left my compter on during vaction and wen i came back my norton anit virus was going crazy
