Either find an earlier version of VC, which although won't catch
as many viruses, will protect you from most, or occasionally check
with another VC (maybe one doesn't stay resident all the time).
Or run without one at all. If you're safe ATM, and you know what
to look for, it's usually quite easy to spot a virus infestation.

But then again, I've been infested before. By computer viruses,
that is. Shock of my life when I found out.
