McAfee AVERT Stinger 2.0.3

Stinger is a stand-alone utility used to detect and remove specific
viruses. It is not a substitute for full anti-virus protection, but rather a
tool to assist administrators and users when dealing with an infected
system. Stinger utilizes next generation scan engine technology, including
process scanning, digitally signed DAT files, and scan performance
optimizations.

This version of Stinger includes detection for all known variants, as of

Note: Windows ME and XP utilize a restore utility that backs up selected
files automatically to the C:_Restore folder. This means that an infected
file could be stored there as a backup file, and VirusScan will be unable to
delete these files. You must disable the System Restore Utility to remove
the infected files from the C:_Restore folder.
