disabling virus checker from c: prompt

[rsher]

How can I temporarily disable my virus checker, if I can only get to a C:
prompt?

I am unable to get to a Windows GUI, including the Safe Mode.

Thank you

In Recovery Console, run the LISTSVC command. This will give you a list of the
services and drivers. Scroll through the list and write the names of all the
services that are related to your AV program. Back at the command prompt, use
the DISABLE command to shut off the services required to start your AV program.

For more info on available Recovery Console commands, enter Help at the prompt.
You can also enter Help followed by the name of the command.

You're welcome.

When you want to turn your AV program back on you'll need to boot into the
Recovery Console and run the Enable command. The entry should look something
like this substituting the correct information where it says "name of service".

Enable "name of service" SERVICE_AUTO_START
