I get good access to NAI, McAfee/AVERT sites.

Is that you CAN'T access the site or is just that it is too slow, etc.
Many infectors now modify the OS to block access to anti malware web
sites.
You can use the the following Multi AV scanning tool. It has the McAfee
command line
scabnner and is a superset of the infectors McAfee/AVERT Stinger targets.
It is also to
coded to undo the OS changes malware makes to block ant malware web sites.
This is done to
make sure the tool gets the McAfee files needed. Additionally, this tool
has a command line
scanner form Sophos and the Trend Sysclean utility.
If there was a reason that made you search out Stinger, the Multi AV
scanning tool can
provide an alternate solution.
Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe
It is a self-extracting ZIP file that contains the Kixtart Script
Interpreter {
http://kixtart.org Kixtart is CareWare } three batch files, five Kixtart
scripts, one Link
(.LNK) file, a PDF instruction file and two utilities; UNZIP.EXE and
WGET.EXE. It will
simplify the process of using; Sophos, Trend and McAfee Anti Virus
Command Line Scanners to
remove viruses, Trojans and various other malware.
C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in
Normal Mode. This
way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor's web site.
The choices are; Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Exit the menu and Reboot the PC.
You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files
or you can
download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have
downloaded the files
needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into
Safe Mode [F8 key
during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want
to run in Safe
Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal
Mode.
When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more
comprehensive PDF help
file.
To use this utility, perform the following...
Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close
Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
{ or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }
NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to
go through your
FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.
