Been meaning to post this link for awhile, and you'd do yourself a favor if you follow it ...
Network Associates (aka the McAfee crew) makes available a little-known (at least outside InfoSec circles), and completely free, trojan/virus/worm detection and removal utility called Stinger. It's a slimmed down tool, so it only searches for a select number of nasties, but it's updated regularly to include the most common ones out there. For example, the latest version (released on June 5th) searches for 12 viruses, including Bugbear, Nimda, Lovgate, Slammer, Klez, and more. It's small, easy, runs quickly... and it's helped me out in a pinch when I need to clean someone's machine here at work. Y'see, some particularly tricky viruses prevent your normal detection software from running correctly, and when that happens, Stinger can do the job. Go n' get it.  |
