testers needed-Trend Micro System Cleaner

[Chewy]

I saw in another forum where this program found a trojan where several other
programs dropped the ball, it operates from safe mode and a dos box on top of that. Very impressive.

In 6 months on the internet with no protection I came up clean.

I am burning the files to a cd which I intend to update regularly for use on
computers I have to work on.

my log file attached,

better be doing it in safe mode, otherwise it's a waste of time

nope, when you are on the internet, you're not in safe mode and resident
trojans can hide from windows and virii scans.

Safe mode results my scan took longer only have 14 gigs of used space on hard drive

I run a lot leaner, better to do disk cleanup before, since temp internet files take forever to scan,
guess we're clean

I was a little confused on which zip file to down load, lpt 629 zip is that the one you ran

yes that's the one I used

what's neat is it's a standalone app

[Chewy]

I only have 3.5 gigs on my system partition

That explains it.

What this all about??

[Chewy]

obsolete versions of trend, not to worry, spurious info

I like it , i just wonder how efficent it is at cleaning if it finds a virus thats the question. I have nortons and it found a virus on my pc once and said it was unable to repair and then gave insturtions on getting rid of it myself, to make a long story short i ended doing a new install,

I am just hoping enough people test it to see if it finds something that
flew under the radar with another program?
