Hello AFAIK these are system files that can't be accessed by the AV component once Windows is running - nothing to worry about. IIRC, they are scanned during boot. HTH philby
Hello Eastside2009, Those files are either password protected, a Windows system/program file or currently in use. The following Knowledgebase article explains and is basically the same explanation for each version of the product: http://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN75 Thank you, Richard
