Quarantined files + original location

[solcroft]

Hi,

After quarantining a suspected piece of malware using ThreatFire, I am unable to create a file at the original file path using the same filename as the quarantined threat. Rebooting the system solves this issue.

Is this behavior intended?

The originating place where the malware was run, is at the moment under a "restraining order". We are working on letting it go, but sometimes removing a piece of malware needs a reboot.
