Anybody really serious about vira should maybe read the following recent
quote from John C. Dvorak of PC Magazine/ZD-net:
>snip
   The only virus checker I recommend is the Russian-developed
   AVP (AntiViral Toolkit Pro) from Central Command, available at
   http://www.avp.com. These guys have daily updates and have managed to find
   things on my system that no other product has seen. Don't be fooled by
   products that promise "quick and speedy" scanning. I want something
   like this to be slow and thorough. AVP features a deep search
   capability (it takes all night) that's phenomenal. The major media
   never mention this product (no PR, no ad budget) so it remains unknown
   to the public at large. On the Web site, you'll find an explanation of
   this latest virus, which it calls the "I-Worm.ZippedFiles" virus.
   There's also a discussion of a Chernobyl variant called Emperor that
   is worth reading as well as a discussion of Microsoft Office 2000
   protection.

I don't have any personal experience with AVP, but a Polish friend of mine
swears to it. He says the developers are from the KGB and very paranoid.
