My Anti Virus scanner showing already 8 more, now saved and healed in
the Vault ! What a nonsense and nuisance, do you have a solution????

It sounds like your PC is infected and your scanner can not clean the
infection.

Is your scanner up to date?

If you know the virus name, you probably will have to search the internet
(start with you antivirus provider) for a fix. Many times the viruses can't
be cleaned by just running the scanner, you may need to reboot in the safe
mode and manually delete files.

Some of these anti-spyware apps flag cookies and ordinary "most recently
used" tracks as being more sinister than they actually are. Beware that
there are also some bogus anti-spyware apps out there that both create fake
reports and contain real spyware themselves. Some examples here:
