Scanning Stops At Java!

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone has had the issues I am having and/or knows a way to fix things.

Every time I attempt to do a Full System Scan, when I get to the Java folder in Program Files (jre1.6.0_06) Avast just stops scanning. Even if I close down the program and re-start it, once again the process stops at the Java folder in Program Files.

I am running XP Home SP3 on an ASUS A8V-MX board with AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+ 2.00GHz 512MB RAM.

Thanks,

Shantelle.
