Subject: [access-uk] Virus scan and system restore

Hello all,

Windows XP

Is it true that system restore has to be turned off before cleaning viruses for 
the cleaning process to be effective or is this just an urban myth?

The logic dictates that even if the system restore files don't get cleaned, one 
has to restore the system to a date before the cleaning process for any nasty 
files to come back to the system, right?

Enlighten me please!

Cheers,
Amro
