At guard  is not an antivirus...
Latest version by the way from before Norton got their hands on it
floats around on the net and seems to work under 2000.

I still get heaps of tmp files in the attachment dir....
And Pretty Park: someone repacked it with a different compressor so
the result was old virus but new looks and the virus scanners nicely
ignored it....
I had quite a few cases of it last week so if anyone with 98 gets
caught the cure is easy: run regscan and pick up a clean registry.
This means the file loading the virus doesnt get loaded at windows
startup...
Donot let a virus cleaner immunize or delete files as if it does
likely part of windows doesnt work...

Best regards,
