Possible, but difficult. The biggest problem is that VIRSTOP is written in 100% assembly, while the Secure scan is in a C/assembly mix. If I created a "Secure Scan" version of Virstop, I don't see how I could get the memory requirements below 30K. The 2K size (if using /DISK) is ok for most users, but 30K is a different story... - -frisk
