Floppy AV

[cybrknight70[NOSPAM]]

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if anyone knew of an Anti-Virus that I could fit onto a
floppy as my friends computer (XP Pro) has recently died (suspected
virus) and cannot boot into safe mode for me to update Norton AV and run
the program. Any ideas?

Wasn't aware a FPROT floppy (DOS based) could scan NTFS volumes. Am I
wrong?

No. Some people use NTFSDOS but the free version being read-only
doesn't allow for disinfection.
