- Try 'VKiller'. It's English, it's simple, and it recognises all
- viruses around. (No new ones have been reported that I know of since!)
-
- It has a couple of useful features like being able to disable the
- Boot-sector, to let you boot with the disk to see if the Boot-Sector
- is required or not. If it isn't, you can kill it. If it is, you
- simply restore it!
-
- Only recognises Boot-sector viruses - but as link viruses are VERY
- rare, that's not too big a problem! There is an english version of
- Sagrotan out there somewhere - it's an older version than the German
- one you probably have, but it works just as well!
