That's good news! I mean that they managed to fix it at
one point. I thought they had left DOS behind.
What I do sometimes is use the old version, but reset
the date on the the computer first in order to allow it to
run. <g> My theory is that since the viruses which seem to
appear from time to time are always old ones, I don't
"really" need a newer scanner. I haven't seen any new DOS
viruses in these parts. This "Melissa" thing seems to
prove my point.
