Hi,

I'm getting this error while performing a scan; in particular when it
hits object
"HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\messengerplus3', a
plugin erroneously detected as a threat by the microsoft antispyware
version I had before.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

My son was getting this error on his computer and we ran chkdsk on his
computer and it found errors on the drive and it fixed them. He ran another
scan and it finished the scan this time so you might want to try this and
see if it works for you.
 
Hello Dragonaut,

Just out of interest. It is a dynamic disk partition?

Until an update is pushed out that fixes the problem, this error is expected
on dynamic partitions.

You will be unable to complete a scan.

Real-time protection is fully effective, as is the update facility.

This should be fixed soon.
