i got this below when the scan finished was there something i should have ticked to be scanned

[attachment deleted by admin]Harry,

Some files are locked by your operating system, or they're password protected. In which case, avast cannot scan. Avast is just letting you know which files and then gives you a reason. By the looks of the image...it would seem these are all Archived files...correct?

Nothing to worry about, my friend.seem these are all Archived files...correct?

i do not have a clue , but thats ok i thought i had to tick a box to get the files scanned , harry

Those are Spybots quarantined files.

Edit: From here http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=251998&postcount=8

Each time Spybot removes/fixes items it puts them in a recovery file which is a compressed zip file. These zip file are encrypted/passworded so they are not able to be accessed by other programs as protection, and that is what your scan has told you, it can't access them, which is as it should be.

These are stored in: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Recovery\DSOExploit.zip\sbRecovery.reg

At any time you wish you can clean these out. Open Spybot and click on the Recovery icon. Items which have been "fixed/removed" are shown with checkboxes next to them. Tick those you want to purge (remove completely) and click on the "Purge Selected items". Be careful not to click on recover selected items, or it will put them back into your system.

The above acts like a quarantine. When "fixed" the items are placed in the encryped zip files where they can't do any harm, and can be left there. If you find that has crippled something on your PC, or that they were removed as the result of a false positive, then they can be recovered, otherwise from time to time they can be purged or cleaned out.

Hope this helps for give me , but how can they be spybot when i have not got it in my pcYou had it at some point.about 2 years agoC:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy

Delete that folder.i took that out and another 7 rubbish folders out as well from a while back

i have a few of these around the pc ( below ) is there a program i can open them with to see what they are , but i would only take them out if they are rubbish

[attachment deleted by admin]You don't want to open them if they are quarantined.no sorry i took out spybot fisrt and then started a file clear out and then this one is the last one i no nothing about , if its rubbish i'll clear it out , it's not quarantined If you don't know what it is then don't delete it. I don't know what it is either.
