How should I interpret these virus statements by F-Prot



What does it mean when F-prot v6 says that it disinfected 9 out of 11
infected objects? I rescanned and no objects were found.

The following is copied from F-prot's ScanReport.txt

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Scan ended: 4/28/2007, 6:05:16 PM
Duration: 0:10:36

Scan result:

Scanned files: 107152
Infected objects: 11
Disinfected objects: 0
Quarantined files: 9
---------------------------------------------------------------------

The following two message types are from the Windows ZP Event Viewer

Information ---------------------------------------------
File
E:\Mail\Pmail\NewMail\PVV62QLJ.CNM->email-details.zip->email-details.htm
..exe quarantined

Warning -----------------------------------------------
Found file,
E:\Mail\Pmail\NewMail\PVV62QLJ.CNM->email-details.zip->email-details.htm
..exe, infected with W32/Mytob.NA@mm

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I think I understand that quarantined means that the file is placed
where it cannot do any harm.

But when F-prot does NOT say quarantined, does that mean it is active
and doing harm? Or what?

I will appreciate any advice,
