Hi Guys! I have a question about 2 files that ended up in my virus vault. I know these came in via email but I also know that I didn't open them. What I would have done was block sender and that's it.<br /> I am running AVG anti virus program and really like it. Have run it since time began! The files I found are: Martha.zip virus and Fraunces.zip virus. When I do some more reading on them(from the virus vault)it says they are indentified as I-Worm/bagle.<br /> So the AVG virus program found them and put the 2 in the virus vault so I am thinking that my computer is safe from them. Is there anyway I can safetly get them out of the virus vault and gone completely without them coming back at me or do I just leave them in till time stops? I have tried a few other sites to see if I can find any info on them but really haven't had any luck at all. Other sites, at least the ones I have, don't really pin point them but group them with a bunch of I-worms/bagle. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

I run AVG also, works great for me and has stopped many viruss. When you click on the AVG site, click again on the vault, The second thing from the left along the top says wipe if you place your pointer on it, that will emty your vault.

Ty LubeDude and jsfinn for your quick responces. I deleted the email a long time ago so that's gone but is it safe to just wipe it out of the vault LD and it will never haunt me again?
