Possible however, if it was then once it was unpacked then avast will catch it. In reality unscanable are just generally nuisance files, if you clean your temp folder using something like crapcleaner and delete old (2 weeks) Adaware and spybot deletions you should find the number of unscanables reducing dramatically
I see they are all password protected. I will send one screen and you can check them. What can I do with them so they don’t show up during every scan? I use CCleaner several times a day, have cleaned out old Ad Aware stuff and will do Spybot S&

Another screen…
You still haven’t opened the Name of File column so we can see the .…\ bits, so we still don’t know what they are.
You mean i need to run another scan and then open it so Operation shows, is that right? Darn, I thought I had it…Will try again!
I believe David is talking about expanding the Name of file column so we can see the full path to the files.
Got it! I will do that as soon as this scan is finished!
Here i thought I had it all figured out!
Most of the items are Ad Aware skins, but it won’t let me send the screen shot, cause it says it is too big.
I’ll figure something out…
Is it possible to set Avast so it won’t scan Ad Aware at all?
I tried cropping one screen shot, but it is still too big to send.
MaDonna try changing format to gif and see if size is smaller.
I changed one to a gif and it was still too large it said.
How else can I get these in? Frustrated here!!!
As I said we really don’t need to see the full list, just some common examples.
As you have said that you believe them to be adaware skins, then there is nothing more to do relating to them as you know what they are and why they aren’t scanned. Excluding them won’t help because at the end of the scan it will list all file it didn’t/couldn’t scan and this will list your exclusions, catch 22. If you have lots of skins for adaware you could remove some or just use the default.
I would very much like to than all of you for your help and patience. I had no idea what to do with 1500+ files. It is actually kind of scary! I am going to uninstall most of the skins cause I don’t use but only a few anyway. So as I said a big THANKS
I would like to thank all of you for your help and patience. When a scan comes up with 1500+ items it couldn’t scan was kind of scary. So thanks again and I wish all of you a safe FRIDAY THE 13TH. I am going to take out all of the Ad Aware skins I don’t use or like… 
That is probably your best bet. As the files appear to be in your user documents I doubt if the programme even uses them
Your welcome, always best to keep things tidy especially when these skins are protected in this way (I can’t see why they do that).
Survived the 13th so far, I was even at the dentist this morning ;D
Hey Dude,
I am only a newbie but this also happened to me and now after some advice I run cccleaner before I run an avast full scan and blow my didgeriedo no more unable to scan files. ;D Cheers Paul
Good advice to clean the c**p, no point in scanning old internet cache, temp, files etc.
Best to have a schedule for regular maintenance then nothing is missed and finally when every thing is done run avast before your back-up:
Sunday
Battery Charge - wireless mouse, etc.
Update & Run security programs - Adaware - Spybot S&D - Spyware Blaster, etc.
Temp Cleaner Utility of choice to:
Clear Cookies - Clear Browser Cache - C:\Documents & Settings\User\Local Settings\Temp
Defragment as required
Run a registry cleaner - Fortnightly - Caution, this can seriously screw you system, don’t get carried away.
Run VRDB - Fortnightly, I do mine manually rather than with screen saver or
Run avast! AV
Run Drive Image Backup
I also back-up all volatile date files (docs, favorites, address book and email, etc.) every day. So if I do experience a serious crash at worst I lose 7 days worth of program installed (but should be able to re-install them from daily backups) and 1 days worth of volatile data.
