HI Frank,

problem once and for all.

Subject: [Ham-Computers] AVG healing/repairing infected files


Greetings from the bottom end of the Africa Continent.

I am trying-out Free AVG ver 8.0.1 and found some infected files. To my 
horror these were all .exe files and the scan quarantained these files.

The help file does not help very much with procedures for 
healing/repairing these exe files. I was under the impression that AVG 
would repair/heal the infected file and only quarantaine files with 
unknown infections.

Any ham with experience to share ?
