SCANV55 has been released. IT is able to detect the 4096 virus in memory prior to doing a scan. The 4096 is similar to the Dark Avenger in that it infects every executable file that is opened. CLEANP55 (Clean-Up) is also now available on HomeBase. It's the shareware equivalent of the VirClean commercial program (from Hirst and McAfee). Clean-Up uses I.D.'s displayed by SCAN55 to determine which virus to check for and remove. It repairs the infected programs and returns the system to normal in most cases. Clean-Up now replaces all of the individual disinfectors that had been available on HomeBase. About time! Alan
