Bd 2010 Deep Scan Skips Files?

L.o.D.

Why does a supposedly "deep" scan start skipping many files??

I thought deep scans scanned ALL files, not skip certain ones?

Right now during a scan, it's skipped close to 60,000 files.

Not very protective is that.

Particularly this reply from Alex Stanciu:

"All files that appear as Skipped in the scan report are clean.BitDefender 2010 has a new feature called SmartScan, which decreases the duration of the scan by adding clean files to a cache so that they will be skipped at the next scan if the files have not been accessed or modified in any way. If a file that is already present in the cache is accessed, then it will be removed from the cache."

Ok then. Thanks for that.
