    Hello,
    I just ran AVG on a computer it had detected a couple of viruses OK however when it got to a folder "Documents and Settings\ceramics\shared"
    it started indicating that every file in the folder had the above virus , about 1500 files, my question is, is this for real and can I allow AVG to attempt to heal these. ( I had a bad experience with scandisk repairing files some years ago.) Thankyou John Ely Australia

    That does not even seem to be a typical valid folder. Is ceramics a user account name? There is not normally a Shared folder under a user account name. Did you create this folder and what is in it? Is this a folder where you are downloading stuff from the internet by using some kind of P2P file sharing program. If so perhaps that is you problem. Many P2P servers are full of infected files.
