Hi Chris, I've been waiting for a response to this message. I wonder if you have done any further investigation on what to do when Avast states that password protected files could not be scanned. In your previous post, you stated that it would be okay to Tab to the Actions menu and choose the Delete option from within the list. Is this the correct thing to do then?
