OK, I'm not sure the scan is working. This is all I get in command box after 20-30 minutes:
The First Finished! message is only part of the scan
Just wait until a text opens please.
Diregard the parameters message
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
Also I've had a pop up box title 16 bit MS-Dos Subsystem
C:\WINDOW\system32\cmd.exe
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. the system file is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close' to terminate application
choices are
Close Ignore
And lastly the Ewido warning, should they be blocked and cleaned or are they false positives since scan is running?
What's happening when you get this error is that the setup for that program uses InstallSheild which is a 16-bit program. Since the AUTOEXEC.NT file is missing, it can't run the install program. Not everyone who installs SP2 will have this problem, but we've had several calls and emails about it.
Fortunately there is a backup of the file living on your hard drive.
Double click "My Computer" then your hard drive (probably C drive) and open the "WINDOWS" folder.
Open "SYSTEM32" and see if the "AUTOEXEC.NT" file is in there. Chances are it isn't. If it is, then it's probably corrupt. Arrow up or hit "Back" to return to the main WINDOWS folder.
Go down to "Repair" and double click. You should find "autoexec.nt" and "config.nt" in there. Copy these files (Ctrl+C) then go back to SYSTEM32 and paste them there (Ctrl+V). It will ask you if you want to replace the old one—click "Yes".
That should do it. Now try installing that program and it should work fine.
Good that did it.
