kimberley27 Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 hi, does any one use the panda antivirus as i have just run a home test using it. (although i have antivirus already running of my own realtime already) having never used it before i just wondered if anyone knew what the results (messages 5) mean. i know it found no viruses, and would have been shocked if it had, but what does the messages 5 mean. i did try to find out on the sight but could not find any info or links System Files Messages Scanned Yes 102309 5 Infected - 0 0 Suspicious- 0 0 Disinfected- 0 0 many thanks for help kimberley Link to post Share on other sites

Inprofile Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 "If this is the first time you scan your PC, you'll have to download the ActiveX controls (1.5 MB) which can take about 5 minutes with a 56 KB modem" - 5 minutes my butt!! Didn't scan the drives as it would take far too long, just My Documents. The 5 is probably the number of scan options you selected before you scanned. My result: System Files Messages Scanned Yes 319 0 Infected - 0 0 Suspicious - 0 0 Disinfected - 0 0 Link to post Share on other sites
kimberley27 Posted February 28, 2004 Author Share Posted February 28, 2004 (edited) hi i sent an email to panda and if i ever receive any thing back i will let you know. i have a feeling that it might have something to do with the options i selected at the beginning. having no idea where to read the messages i will have to wait for their reply. i will let you know thanks for help :beer: :beer: kimberley Edited February 28, 2004 by kimberley27 Link to post Share on other sites
Inprofile Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 These two are more popular and less hassle: HouseCall - RAV. Now i'll have to go clear Panda out of my system. Link to post Share on other sites
Jsue Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 Kimberley, could the number 5 be referring to your emails/messages that were scanned? Link to post Share on other sites
kimberley27 Posted February 29, 2004 Author Share Posted February 29, 2004 Kimberley, could the number 5 be referring to your emails/messages that were scanned? thanks jsue, i had the same thought but went to my emails and ie, i have none, as i don't use it, and in my using email client, have dozens. sorted in files. so i guess thats out too. many thanks for the thought anyway to inprofile, i use housecall as i have pc-cillin installed as my av and fw. but never used the other one thanks again kimberley :beer: :beer: to you both Link to post Share on other sites
