Prevx CSI Free - a stand-alone malware scanner

Notes from ClifNotes, Dec 2007, permalink Anti-Virus Tools

I'm always on the look out for new small tools I can take with me to help fix computers. This is one of those tools that I may be adding to my thumb drive for emergencies. Since I don't have an infected PC to try it out on, I can't tell you how well it works.

Update:
I just talked with Tom at temerc.com. He let me know that this isn't a reliable product yet. It gives too many false positives. That doesn't mean that it's a rogue anti-malware app. It just means that Prevx needs to work on this one. I'll keep my eye on it for future use.
