Post by: thecubedcanuck on May 05, 2004, 04:27:00 AM
Does anyone know of a good "FREE" worm virus checker, or a site that I can check this out on.

I haven't tried it in years, so I can't really vouch for it, but I know that McAfee lets you do an online virus scan from their website.

I don't know how well it works, but *shrug* it might help.

Symantec Downloads


Edit:  Stumbled across this on symantec's site this morning.  Symantec Security Check  You can do a virus scan, and do a check for other internet vulnerabilities.
