Hello, I'm looking for an antivirus program that can scan NTFS (and Fat32, Fat) but runs on Linux (bootable CD). I've tried Norton Rescure disks, but that only runs DOS (no help there). I have machines running XP, Windows 2000, ME, and I need a good antivirus program. Or does anybody know of a good bootable CD that has all this installed already (linux of course)?

thanks in advance

I've used ClamAV for some time and have found it to be well developed and dependable
 
Thanks for the replies, I'm using "Incert" bootable CD, which has ClamAV on it. I just didn't know if it would be able to do a thorough job on the NTFS partitions. Obviously I update the definitions before scanning.

Ok if that is the "anti Virus" program of choice, then I will stay with it.
Thanks for the input.

Tech4rce.
