    Sorry :)
    I just got myself a usb-stick on which I plan to install a bootable linux. I suppose that I might get clamav to run from it too (time permitting :rolleyes: )

    You can download a superdat file from McAfee. This includes a fully functional scanner that will work from everywhere.

    I couldn't find the file. Maybe I do not know what I am looking for. Can you point me to the right thing? It seems a great idea.

    Thanks,
    Jerry
