Well, well, well, it appears that 2 of the files have a virus (where that came from, don't ask me!)

Hijacker.Small.jf

So, what AVG does is lock the file so I can't open it, it moves it to the "virus vault" where I tell it to heal it. I instruct AVG to retore the file, it does, still locked with the virus apparently.

Any suggestions what to do next? How can I clean the file and restore it if AVG won't?

Interesting that nothing like this ever turned up with free AVG and McAfee and all the other scans I've run. So, I guess that person I thought was a nutball who said her virus puppy screamed when she visited my site, was right. Sue me!

Would leaving the file in the vault and restoring it from a backup be an option?

I tried that, here's the info on it

and the original message from Front Page when I try to open the files in there (which I now know are locked)
