Jelorian Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 So my sister-in-law is home from college and asks me to take a look at her laptop. Apparently it got a virus and the system is pretty hosed. I want to create a bootable CD and run Norton AV from the command line. So I created a bootable CD using Nero and also added vpscan.exe and s-t-i-n-g-e-r.exe (renamed to stinger.exe).The CD boots but I can't see the 2 files I added.Back in the DOS/Windows 3.1 days I would boot from a floppy and run Mcaffee from the command line and it would find the viruses and get rid of them.Is there a better way to do this? I'm thinking that vpscan.exe is out of date, so I'm looking for a better command line scanner.I was also thinking of taking the HD out of the laptop and hooking it up to and IDE adapter so I could see it from my desktop PC and run NAV Corp Ed. 9.0 on it, but I don't have the adapter with me and I'd have to go buy one.Thanks for any advice and pointers. I've tried searching past posts, but I'm unable to find the answer I need.Jel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikgale Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 Try creating a BartPE CD with UBCD4win on it. This will have all the utils you'll ever need, inc. a virus scanner or two. I can't remember which ones off the top of my headHave a google and see what you can come up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
