Question about scans

I did a scan and can up w/ a bunch of [file locked] [4] aside from that there were many files blocked due to:

-error- unknown compression method
- archive damaged
-error- password-protected file

C:\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\NTUSER.DAT - error opening (File locked) [4]

C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Personal\Skins\Ad-Aware SE default.ask »ZIP »arrow1.bmp - error - password-protected file

C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Common\unyt.exe »WISE »file_00000000.bin »WISE »WISE0132.DLL - error - unknown compression method

MBR sector of the 2. physical disk - Error reading disk sector


Is this supposed to happen.

TIA,

I always get a few of those errors when scanning(locked files, Ad-Aware, archive damaged). IMHO, nothing to worry about. Some of them explained here,

Thanks Snowbound

Actually, on my last scan I got about a hundred of these. Most were pointing to SpyBot S&D or Adaware. I don't have anything password protected though

You're welcome.

This may explain it a bit better,

You ,personally , don't ,but SpyBot S&D and Ad-Aware SE both password protect their back-ups so you can't accidentically reinfect your PC .

All *errors* are normals . Don't worry .Files like :\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\NTUSER.DAT are operating and they are less likely to be infected ... I have never seen them infected ,though ;-)

 

Hi screamer, welcome to Wilders.

You might like to take a run through this thread.

Thanks for the welcome Blackspear. I set up Nod according to your guide. I'm new to Nod so I'm sure it will take some getting used to. I'm sure I'll have more questions.

Come to think of it... I have one:

I was D/L'g an app and in the sys tray NOD popped up and monitored the D/L. This has never happened before, or since. I searched the help file but found nothing relating to this.

TIA,

That is due to the size of the file, once it gets to a certain size you see the popup to basically notify you why you still haven't seen the file you have clicked on (as NOD32 is still scanning it).

Hope this helps...

Cheers
