    The files that show up in blue print are in use by the operating system.
    Nothing can get in those files including an antivirus scanner.
    Windows is protecting those files.

    Your scan is still effective.

    I would just let NOD scan normally. No need to disable anything or turn off system restore.

    If malware is found in the future NOD will let you know.

    Be sure and read the help file that is included with NOD. It will help you understand most of what you need to know.

    And, this forum is open twenty four hours a day for help you may need.

    Hope this helps...
