Hey Folks, Had a branch manage bring in one of his sale folks personal computer (we load them with a Cisco VPN client and Synapse 5250 software for remote access). It was Windows XP Pro and was doing some weird things. So I tried to load our antivirus product on it (Sophos) and that was going weird. So I booted it up in safe mode and ran a special Sophos command line tool from CD (with a diskette of the latest virus ID's) and it cleaned up 344 viruses. Granted, many were instances if the same virus in different files but this was a record ! And I would venture a guess that the vast majority of home PC's are in similar state.
