170161 2003-08-24 11:42:00 Hi,

I run AVG Anti-Virus System Free Edition. When I run a complete system check I find out in the test results that it doesn't check Documents and Settings on the C(root) drive and also some Files in the System32 folder.
Why doesn't the system check thos Files and Folders automatically?

And when the sytem checks the folders, does it really check every file in it? How reliable?

Thanks,
DanielS (3390)

170163 2003-08-24 12:04:00 Have you put a check beside "test all file extensions" under "Service" "Complete test settings"?

My opinion is that AVG free is as good as anything on the market.
Most Antivirus programs don't/can't detect Virus's that haven't been already been identified,So treat unusual emails with suspicion.
