    Dan,


    I asked the same question in the thread below and here was the answer:

    Hello AndreiRC ,


    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.


    Thank you .


    Hope this helps.
