Presumably most of you carry out initial tests in a DOS mode. Any website info would be fantastic. Thanks for all your help in advance. Darren

For those elderly clients on tight budgets I recommend AntiVir http://www.free-av.com/ or AVG Gold http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_dwnl_free.php . However there are many on-line scanners you can use such as http://www.bitdefender.com/scan/licence.php http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/ http://us.mcafee.com/root/mfs/scan.asp http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ http://www.ravantivirus.com/

Darren I use F-Prot which is a free DOS scanner www.f-prot.com When I need to scan a Windows 2000 or XP computer I use NTFSDOS to mount the HD and scan without trying to clean anything since NTFSDOS only reads and will not write or change an NTFS volume.
