I went through the system to find questscan.dll as I'm getting a message from F-Prot antivirus that says they can't quarentine it. I also can't delete it. This system doesn't bring up .dll only .exe. Can you help me? I'm getting the message from F-prot several times a day and I'm worried. Thank you. Betty Jane

@Betty Jane: I think you can uninstall QuestScan from the Add/Remove programs dialog. If that does not work FreeFixer can delete it for you.

By the way, do you know how QuestScan was installed on your system?
