Since the last thread was lost, I have compiled a short list of online virus scanners for you to use. Feel free to add to the list if you have a favorite scanner.

Greetings Ron

Your second link was brought over/out by MS and so no longer provides the service as mentioned. :mad:

You can add Avast (www.avast.com) to the list. Since hearing rumours about AVG discontinuing its' free edition I've been using AVast and find it equally as good .

For the 100th time, AVG is only discontinuing SUPPORT of 7.1, or whatever.

7.5 still has a free edition. :d

I would not use the Norton online

[Mehmet]

I will say that Avast is better then AVG in my opinion..

I am currently using Nod32 and it is great, had norton (one month free) before but it slowed down my computer so much.
