Not surprised at all that you are using a DOS box.  The government uses
"Fedline" one way to transmit wires, returns and order savings bonds
through a DOS based system.  I think the better question is how many
viri are written to attack a DOS box?

Subject: [windows2000] OT-Virus Scan for DOS Box

 

Believe it or not we are still running a DOS machine within our
organization.  Are there any virus scanners available for a DOS box or
will the current scanners work (I suspect not)?

 

Thanks in advance!
