I always find that scandisk utility perfect for detecting virus infections.
It also works to ask the microphone..."ahhhmmm do you have a virus in
there?"

We notify the intended recipient as well as the sender of the virus (Declude
AV does this automatically for us!) mostly for advertising. We have made new
customers this way and our regulars thank us for watching out for them.

We did have someone (an AOL user) tell us to quit sending them email as they
did not send out the attachments :) It took me over a week to convince her
that her computer was infected and was sending them out without her knowing
it... then her husband says he scanned the PC and found no virus. After a
few more emails I found out he was using Windows Scandisk utility...
