Hi,

I am having a problem finding a general antivirus program that will still work with windows 98. Especially a free one. AVG, Ad-Aware, McAfee, and Norton don't work. Spybot does but I need something more general to find viruses.

Do you know of one that I can use?

Is it free?

Thanks,

I downloaded it and it scanned and found 12 results. But it said there was an error in repairing or deleting the results. Should I uninstall and reinstall? Can't viruses mess up or target your anti-virus programs?

Thanks for the quick response last time...I appreciate.

No. Sometimes AV program is not able to remove some infection(s).
Your best bet...
