David,

I'm glad that you liked the links, but I'd have to say that when I used a
couple of these sites the other day when I had a computer at work that was
acting like it had a virus.  Unfortunately, Norton had been disabled by the
virus so I had to use an online virus scan to see if it was actually a virus
or if one of the employees was messin around with the computer.  When I
tried the Trend Micro Online VirusScan, it did not detect any viruses, but
when I tried the online virus scanner on BitDefender's site, it found a
couple of them.

So, the moral of today's story is, if at first you don't succeed, try, try
again...LOL  Just because you scanned a computer for a virus via your local
pc's antivirus program and did not find anything, doesn't mean you don't
have a virus.  I would strongly suggest that if you suspect a computer of
having a virus, try a couple of online virus scanners just to be on the safe
side.

Just my 2 cents worth...

Troy
