I ran a virus scan with nod32 and when i looked in quarantine, there was a file i know for sure wasn't anything harmful. I tried to press remove, to restore it to the place it was, but right after, it puts it back into quarantine again. how do i keep this from happening?

This is how it works..
-NOD32 detects the problem
-prevents the problem files from running/infecting your pc
-stores the virus’ in a ‘quarantine’ so they cannot do damage to your PC.
So, as long as they are in the quarantine they will not infect you, that’s the whole point of the quarantine. I mean, common sense would basically tell you this is how it works, otherwise there would be no point calling it a ‘quarantine’.
Deleting them from quarantine is a good idea though, that way they are completely removed.
The reason why they are not deleted instantly by default, is so that you could possibly clean the file with a future virus signature update….. that way it wouldn’t delete an important business file or som

But how do you actually delete a file when it is listed in the quarantine?
