I have discovered the following “report” using the Administration Tools of XP. It’s listed under "AntiVirus.

Are these Items the same as those mentioned in the thread? i.e. locked etc…

Appreciate any answers I can get.

Thanks

Yes I can… See Attached:

Lawman49, error 5 means ‘Access Denied’.
Maybe this is one windows update… I won’t worry about it.
You didn’t post the Alert screenshot ;D

You can Modify them, removing attachments and Edit the text, ‘error, content removed’ something like that.

Lawman, don’t worry, it’s an access forbitten again (code 5).
Are you logging as an administrator (with administration rights)? Most probably, but just to be sure.
Did you tweak or change your Windows or avast installation? I mean, access rights, user groups?
