How long have you been experiencing the problem?
I am facing this for a month.
Try doing a System Restore and see if that helps.
Have you tried scanning them when you are in Safe Mode?
I didn't tried safe mode scanning. I don't know how to scan in safe mood. Will try to restore my system. Thanks for suggestions.
I believe Avast has a boot-time scan feature. Have you tried doing that? If you're capable of removing your hard drive, plug it to another system that you know is "clean". Scan your HD there.
Hi, thanks for your reply. I did not tried. I am doing as you sad. Will inform you here. Thanks again.
if that dosent work ur last option is to reformat with a clean copy of windows
you could also try a different virus scanner. sometimes the people who program them are sneaky and will crash the scanner.
