The number of scanned files will depend entirely on the amount of processes in use by Windows at the time of the scan. The same number of files may be resident on the computer, but because Windows has them "locked" when programs are using them, they become "unscannable" files and won't be logged as scanned.

Post a HijackThis log if you are concerned.

Lol Muck I figured it was somthing simple,

So some of those files can Never be scanned then depending on what files are in use(I am presuming with a modicum of certainty that those files will never be scannable) As the OS will require them to run .. but on that note mayhaps they don't need to be.I don't belive you cannot be to Anal with your rigg after all we are talking about a computer here it's completly Anal if anything at all

Thank You Muckster)
