I am new to bitdefender and have just done a full scan. This showed no virus etc but showed 165 password protected files which were not scanned. All thes files are in a folder called "wondershare".

Checking out "wondershare" on the net I still don't now what it is, where it came from or how to get rid of it.

Can any body please help with what I should do next.

Thanks for your help

    Wondershare is a slideshow creation utility of some kind, I would say it should appear in The programs list in settings to allow removal. It is not uncommon for some software to encrypt files, it is curious for a simple utility suite however, usually it is game companies trying to prevent things like save file hacking and the like. I can think of no legitimate reason for a slideshow maker to encrypt anything. I would say it is at the least suspect and quite possibly some form of spyware.

    Thanks for that. My concern was that if BitDefender cannot scan them then what are they and should I get rid of them.

    Since writing the first query I have checked the files and see they wewe installed when I was trying to transfer music files to my wifes I phone so your answer is on the right lines. I have now used a program called Glary Utilities to clean them off.

    Many thanks for you help.
