Does AVG 7 have the DOS scanner like 6 used to have? If so what is the executable file.....Thanks Melchizedek 41

It's still there, and it's still executed using the same file (avg.exe)
However, there is no longer a nice menu to work with.
It's all command line.
avg /? will bring up the help file for proper syntax and usage.

AVG was saying there was a virus or possible virus in the master boot record but it turned out it was that there was a problem with the master boot record so we just did a fdisk mbr and that fixed it. Thanks again ............Melchizedek
