Try deleting your temporary internet files before doing the scan and see if
it works.
You can do that while in IE (Tools,Internet Options, Delete Files (check
Offline Contents) and click OK
It could also be a problem with the 'restore' feature in XP. ( it contains
even deleted viruses that can't be touched by antivirus programs until the
'restore' feature is disabled.)
Empty out your Deleted Items box in OE.
