AVG anti-virus?

When you get a virus and avg detects it, it sends it to the virus valt. Should i delete it from the vault or what. When i see it in there it makes me think i still have it. What does this mean and what should i do?

    "The AVG Virus Vault application is a safe environment for management of suspect or infected objects detected during AVG Free Edition scanning.

    Once an infected object is detected during scanning, and AVG Free Edition is not able to heal it automatically, you are asked to decide what to do with the suspect object. The recommended solution is to move the object to the AVG Virus Vault for further treatment.

    hi ,

    i am a fan of AVG for faster scanning and identifying viruses as compared to similar commercial softwares..

    but hear me

    it never have fixed a infected file , it will either delete or putit in a chest , so dont use AVG ,

    use similar freewares like Avast4.7 , bitdefender8
