Seek And Destroy Malware With An Antiviral Live CD 31

Yx writes "CHRONOMIUM Virus Live is a GPL automatic decontamination LiveCD. It can without installing anything on your computer, seek and destroy viruses found on it. It is very useful when viruses have taken over a computer, and made it unable to work correctly. In its new 0.9 version, the GPL flavour is fully functional. So if you're doomed by those petty viruses, just try it, it may help you much! Download it here."

    Anyone know if this thing can write to NTFS volumes? I couldn't tell from the English part of their website and my French ain't so good.

    If it can't write to NTFS volumes it wouldn't do me any good.

    Yeah, I'm responding twice to the same post... sorry.

    In terms of "an obvious idea", what I've always wanted to see is a LiveCD/Knoppix offering that could read a FAT/NTFS partition on boot and run equivalents to the following software:

    - Norton AV / ClamAV
    - AdAware
    - Spybot S&D

    By the title of the story, I thought we might have actually gotten something close ("Seek and Destroy" vs "Search and Destroy").
