    Question Cleaning

    There are six users on my computer. When I run spybot, virus scan, ad-aware etc etc in my user profile there is not a flow on effect to the other user accounts. Is there a quick fix.

    Hello,

    Did you already tried to run a scan from the admin account?

    Best regards

    It should be noted that although the entire system is scanned for most malware, due to restrictions in the Microsoft APIs (Application Program Interfaces) used by Spybot, the scan from one account does not include the Internet cache, cookies and some other user specific entries of other accounts.

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.
