KAV online scan result -- "object is locked"

It's been awhile since I've used KAVs online scan. In the past when I've used it, it either comes back and lists the malware I have picked up, or it says "This system is Clean!" or something like that.

This time, it has this long list of items that states that "object is locked" and "skipped."

Can malware hide in these areas?

Does my regular AV unlock them?

Is this something to be concerned about?

Thank you,

kaspersky online scan has given me locked object warnings for like the last 4 times i have used it so it seems nothing to worry about

lodore

 

When i was using another security suite, I used to run a free kaspersky online scan now and then as a backup. I would get dozens of the same messages. My best guess is that if they considered any of the "lockouts" suspicious, they would list them as such.

Trying out the actualy kaspersky suite nowadays, and of course you do not get such messages from running an "inhouse" scan.

I do not think you have anything to worry about; but if it would ease your mind just run some of the other good free online scans available.
