    Just a heads up.... the version of Dr Web Cure-It available here at MajorGeeks has expired and won't run. You can get it from here: http://download.drweb.com/drweb+cureit/ It's 100% free as usual. I like to use it once in a while 'cuz it's a stand alone (no installation needed) and it runs in safe mode if needed and it picks up everything. Alot of stand alone virus apps are aimed at only specific worms or trojans, or are limited to about 50 or 60 items..... Cure-It has a database of over 20,000 pieces of malware and it does a pretty good job. There is the occasional false positive (some AOL files are sometimes picked up as viruses but Cure-It doesn't delete anything without the user's approval). You can also customize your scan options to certain files or folders..... Anyway, just thought I'd let the people know ;)

    The Dr. Web now on the MG front page is the AntiVirus shareware version that requires installation, and not the freeware CureIt standalone scanner. The new CureIt that I linked to above is about 6mb (a tad over 6mb).... again, just a head's up ;)
