This is my first post and I'm not familiar with antivirus actions. I'm currently using avg 8.5 trial version and upon scanning, it detected tacoda cookie, trojan and worm viruses in windows\system32\.... The program successfully put all four viruses into the virus vault.
The problem is that the trial version is going to expire soon and I've decided to not buy their licensed version. I plan to switch to avast free antivirus. What should I do with those viruses in the vault? Would they be released back into the system when the avg 8.5 is uninstalled?
I noticed there is a restore option at the bottom of the virus vault. I clicked it on one of the virus and it's not in the vault anymore. Did I do anything foolish? Please help. Thank you for your time.

Clicking Restore puts the virus back where it was. Run another scan and return to the Virus Vault, and then click "Empty Vault".

If you like AVG 8.5, why don't you switch to the free version if you don't want to buy the full version?

By the way, AVG 9.0 Free is due for release in a week or two.

chevina, please ignore the above advice. You had a virus and AVG removed it. I can't imagine why you would want to put it back.
