Very good av program, found viri that others have missed in the past.
used to have the win version, but if you cant start win, what do you do, go
to dos, so I use the DOS version all the time, in win & in Dos, & it's FREE.
& updated more than enuff for free too, not like the bloatware from symantec
& mcafee etc....with HUGE definitions etc, resource hogging stuff it is...

just my 2.2c worth (GST included) Smile

Oh, I am sure all AV programs out there have, in the past, found a virus
that wasn't detected by other AV programs...

It runs from DOS and when you want it to. Quiet and lethal.

by malware. It is wise to have a DOS based AV available for such
situations.
