I beg to differ: > >SWEEP virus detection utility >Version 3.54, Monday, February 04, 2002 <delurk> I notice you're using 3.54 rather than 3.53, so I've confirmed the same result for 3.53 (Release data 7 Jan 02, engine v2.7), using the batch file posted here earlier (although I changed the subst drive letter from Q to Z because I already had a Q drive). It would be interesting if Frank could describe the methodology he used, as the phrase "According to my own tests" suggests he was not using the same script. The machine in question has NT4 SP6, in case anyone was wondering whether that was what caused the difference between David's results and Frank's.
