Folks,

I have noticed that each time a COMPLETE test is done a file shows up in the scanning window, 'ntoskrnl.exe', under the Result/infection column, it says 'change' under Path column 'c:\WINDOWS\system32\ntoskrnl.ex
But the complete test result finally shows 'no threat found'.
I am using windows XP professional version. on an IBM netvista computer,

I posted the same qerry on the, AVG forumhttp://forum.grisoft.cz/freeforum/search.php?8

but NEVER received any reply hope someone will help out here.

regards

This was asked not too long AGO, but for the life of me, I can't find the thread for some reason. I must be tired. In any case, it's nothing to worry about. This is normal. This is just related to general maintenance, Windows Updates, or PERHAPS correcting a driver issue. You should only be concerned if AVG says the file is infected.Agreed. I get the same with AVG 7.5.

As soon as a scan starts, it lists

user32.dll (C:\Windows\System32\user32.dll)
shell32.dll (C:\Windows\System32\shell32.dll)
ntoskrnl.exe (C:\Windows\System32\ntoskrnl.exe)

It just means that updates have taken place.
