Ugh ... SEE THE LIGHT:



Consider this an excellent time to recognize that



your operating system is defective. I recommend replacing



it with one of:



http://fedora.redhat.com



http://www.centos.org



http://www.opensuse.org



http://www.debian.org



http://www.ubuntu.org



http://www.slackware.org



http://www.freebsd.org



http://www.opensolaris.org



Any of these will be more reliable, less susceptible to



viri, uses your hardware more efficiently, and they're



all free.
hi,



the av software can't scan the file because it has some kind of file protection that is stopping the av software from understanding the code inside the file. When you encrypt a file you change the contents so much that only somebody with a key (code) can de-scramble it and view it.
make sure that your anti virus is updated
http://www.opensuse.org



http://www.debian.org



http://www.ubuntu.org



http://www.slackware.org



http://www.freebsd.org



Use these sites.
You should delete all encrypted files, because it can't be scanned.
