What OS and what file system? F-PROT DOS has some problems scanning NTFS
volumes.

I notice something similar on a Win2000 machine, whether I try to scan FAT
or NTFS volumes. Maybe the problem is with NT not just NTFS. AVPDOS32 seems
to scan NT volumes just fine. Doesn't F-PROT for Windows come with a Win32
command line scanner? That should work.
