[linux-help] Re: Linux antivirus

["Stephen S." <general-delivery@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm starting to test a distro called Insert. It's Knoppix based, trimmed
down to fit on a business card size CD-R with a recent version of clam
anti-virus. Made specially for booting on a heavily infected Win box to
run the AV in a Linux GUI (blackbox I think).
