finding viruses....

Hi! Avast! team. I like Avast! antivírus. It is very good!! Good job :slight_smile:

But I have a little problem:

Avast! always found vírus files in my disk’s System VOlume Information/restore folder in random times, but not during the full system scan. (I’m working with the computer, and all of a sudden Avast! warning dialog box appeares, and it says that a virus found in the folder above)

But if I make a full system scan, it isn’t find any virus!

Next time Avast found virus again in the folder above… ???

how can I defeat this problem?

Thx, and sorry for my bad English, I’m writeing from Hungary :slight_smile:

Oh I forgot it:

I use Avast! Home edition license version 4.6.652

Operating system: Windows XP Professional

DSL internet connection
VPS file version: 0520-4

If you find a virus keeps coming back after you delete it, it’s most probably infected the System Restore folder, the best way to solve this is to disable System Restore, reboot your machine and then enable it again. After all, run a full avast! scanning. System Restore cannot be disabled on Windows 9x.
