Detecting eBlaster

[Gary Crawford]

Will McAfee VirusScan 10, SpySweeper 4.5 or Microsoft Antispyware (all with
the latest definitions) detect eBlaster 5.0? TIA

One way to find out.............. run them and see.

Try to get an old version of Norton commander (dos-version), and use it to
browse to the file.
Deleting with NortonCommander will almost always succeed, because windows
don´t have any grip on NC.

It's not very likely Norton Commander for DOS will run in XP, or if it does
it won't be allowed to directly access the disk, particularly if formatted
for NTFS.

i just tested it - nc works... however, it's just a consumer of the dos
api calls - ntfs won't bother it anymore than it bothers the original
'del' command at the command prompt...

OK. Cheers Kurt.

I guess this seems a bit old...
