here is the only reference I have found to any virus infecting sct files.
http://ca.com/virusinfo/encyclopedia/descriptions/v/vbsiloveyoucn.htmI have been quite happy with this software from CA, I have been using it for about 2 years now. and \--crossing my fingers- no virus's have found their way into my machine yet.
http://antivirus.cai.com/ this is the download area. - One thing, if your thinking about it. you would be wise to hurry, their free offer for unliminted free updates ends june 7th. So if you get it before june 7th, you can keep it updated for free - as long as you have that computer. ...
hope this sort of helps.

In the beginning, there was a command prompt, and all was well.
