after 3rd time. any other precautions? once i'd been alerrted by avast i pressed 'abort op' option followed by 'move to chest'. when i clicked the latter i got a windows diagnostic page so clicked the 'back button' (top left of screen) and on the third attempt avast finally sent files to the chest. in my log viewer i now have 13 files with above virus(as well as other files from the year). also within the chest in 'infected files' i have the files in their also. their also in my history folder. is their any steps/precautions i can follow. i heard a scan in 'safe mode' is worthwhile and looking in the 'restore folder'???. i only have avast (set on auto scan daily) and windows defender. (recently had symantec norton till they ceased joint service with my bt contract). any ideas? would be greatly appreciated
