i never see it mentioned on these forums or elsewhere for that matter - has anyone used it to good effect?

 

Never heard of it.

 

I've heard of it and it has been around for awhile. I have never tried it myself though.

 

I scanned the install file for the free trial of digital Patrol. It is infected with a virus Kernal40.dll what ever that is I dont know but donot download this.
also various java viruses.

 

Beefcarver: This is AVAST's false positive.

 

makes sence because I scanned it with avast and was alerted to this . So this program is good? Can anyone scan it with avg I think I tried to download this program years ago and got the same alert with avg. I remember seeing this B4.

 

Hi guys .
I am surprised that this program is , apparently , scarin you . It is ok to use . At least , it was a few months back .
Is it a good AT ? It is ok . Nothing great . It is mediocre at what it does . It has a nice look but , not the strongest protection by far . Decent though .

 

I ran Digital Patrol too :
Total scan time : 31m38s - very fast
Total infections : 0 - like the rest of my scanners.
You must be a big fan of definition-based scanners, to keep this one.

When you want to earn money : write the n'th scanner, put it on a website, ask $24.95 for it and tell everybody your scanner is the very best in the world.

 

$24.95 - very reasonable Erik - i will take 2 (if the first one doesn't find anything then i can run the second just to double check)

 

I like your sense of humor

 

this one's for you Erik -it's a 21st century scanner and a steal at $29.99
