virus vault or totally delete???

ive been using avg free 8.0 for a few months now with no problems (unlike some of the threads i was just reading about avg)

one question i have though, is what do you do with a virus or warning tracking cookies??

should i leave them safely locked away in the vault or delete them from the vault???

    Unless the file that is infected is something you'll need (generally this is rare with most modern viruses, except a few script viruses that infect Word, etc documents) then you can just delete them altogether
  • thank you, i'll delete them all now,
    got 5 in the vault dating back months haha
