Fprot = can't clean malware good?

[Simon Phoenix]

I've had about 8 files that FProt determined are malware and didn't delete them at all, I really don't like this at all.

Did you check your option settings under "disinfect"?

You can always submit those files to F-Prot to confirm they are malware.

I've noticed only F-prot does these things, other av just clean/delete. What exactly does this stuff prove? Not much of a point to it.

I will submit them.

If they say suspicious, it may not be malware and to delete them might cause problems.
If they are malware, they can add the proper means to clean those files.
