    Hello, I'm helping a friend who had a Laptop loaded with about 40 Virus's. I got rid of all of them I think but after doing a Looooong scan with a-Squared AV & malware I believe it said something was in a driver on laptop but software closed by accident. Can I do a scan alone of the drivers on the Laptop. It has XP Pro on it. Also I put Avira Anti Virus Personal Free software on the computer after removing expired Symantec AV software. That's how I believe she got such a messed up computer.
    Thanks, Paul

    A custom scan of C:\ Windows should cover that.

    Okay PeteC, I didn't know if I could get it down to a more custom group. That will be fine doing it on C:/windows.
    Thank you PeteC
