We all have to agree on what we mean by malware when we decide to compare anti-malware tools, as that affects the false positive/negative ratio substantially. If you genuinely believed the box had at least 24 trojans you would simply reinstall from trusted media unless one was simply interested in testing anti-malware tools. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
