Hi,
When performing a full scan, I like to see the report, so I usually show it. However, I just noticed that some wiles were reported with "internal error". Now don't get me wrong, I know what these files is, these are system locked files (like pagefile.sys). But the warning in NOD32 was more explicit, stating the file was in use by the system.
I don't know if that's a bug on my machine or a design flaw, but I highly advise to change that less than helpful "internal error" message to a message stating the file is locked and therefore can't be scanned (or even better, implement raw disk scanning, if not already done, and bypass this kind of locks).
