during a regular scheduled scan suddenly ive noticed my scanner stops at about 95% on a certain dll file (its never done this before) and it forces me to close the scan before completion. any suggestions? Im pretty positive that there's no physical damage to my HDD or any viruses on my computer at the moment, but honestly it could be anything. any help would be great, thanks!
