zip files in quarrentine floder

[Guest]

I keep getting password protected zip files in my quarentine folder. I delete
them and they keep coming back even though I haven't created any files or
given any passwords. I have xp media edition and use bell south internet
security suite. I scan for virus' frequently and keeps putting the files in
quarrentine but don't delete them because they are password protected. What
could be causing this problem? I also scan on safety.live.com. Thanks to the
one who can resolve this.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this really an XP issue? Sounds like you AV program is doing this and
you are talking about an AV quarantine? If so it's your AV provider
"problem". I don't think a password protected folder should trouble a decent
AV program and if you are not creating it then deletion shouldn't cause you
any problems. I'm not familiar with Bell South Security Suite but I presume
this is Anti-Vrus, Firewall etc on your local machine? Get hold of Bell
South or change AV program is probably best
