The Strategy and
Checklist |
|
1. No single program gets rid of
every single virus or nasty
So follow the checklist below! |
|
|
|
2. Don't be afraid of any of these
programs together they work very well! and they are free
or donateware! |
|
|
3. If you have AntiVir running
while you do Housecall you create
what is known in the military as a "Pincer
Attack"
Most of the time these two programs running together
force
viruses to show themselves. When normally individual
scans
would show nothing. Why? I have no idea, but it works! |
