    Hi

    When I try to defragment my C drive I first analyze it (indicates defragmenting is necessary) and then start the process. However once it completes I get a message that some files couldn't be moved/password protected. When I run another analysis it indicates that the drive needs to be fragmented - despite the fact that i just finished a defragment run.

    Is this due to a malware infection?

    I noticed that there are a few files that are password protected (a couple are spybot).

    Suggestions?

    Thanks in advance
