Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe

To use this utility, perform the following...
Execute; Multi_AV.exe { Note: You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS }
Choose; Unzip
Choose; Close

Execute; C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT
{ or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS }

NOTE: You may have to disable your software FireWall or allow WGET.EXE to go through your
FireWall to allow it to download the needed AV vendor related files.

C:\AV-CLS\StartMenu.BAT -- { or Double-click on 'Start Menu' in C:\AV-CLS}
This will bring up the initial menu of choices and should be executed in Normal Mode.
This way all the components can be downloaded from each AV vendor's web site.
The choices are; Sophos, Trend, McAfee, Kaspersky, Exit this menu and Reboot the PC.

You can choose to go to each menu item and just download the needed files or you can
download the files and perform a scan in Normal Mode. Once you have downloaded the files
needed for each scanner you want to use, you should reboot the PC into Safe Mode [F8 key
during boot] and re-run the menu again and choose which scanner you want to run in Safe
Mode. It is suggested to run the scanners in both Safe Mode and Normal Mode.

When the menu is displayed hitting 'H' or 'h' will bring up a more comprehensive PDF help
file. http://www.ik-cs.com/multi-av.htm

Look up task manager under "T"

Task Manager Lost

Task Manager might have gotten into tiny footprint mode. When this happens
it can get dragged to a little, small, wee box. Roughly 1/2" x 1 1/2". It
can even be dragged almost off screen.

This might work...

Try right clicking the Task Manager icon in the Notification Area (by your
clock), select Always on Top. Look around on your Desktop for a blue (if XP
theme) or gray box (if Classic theme) about 1/2" x 1 1/2". Double click
anywhere on the box if found.

Task Manager Lost

It can even be dragged almost off screen.

Has happened to me a quite some time ago with a different application. Took
me about 10 minutes to realize this and during that 10 minutes I was
starting to lose it.

Did you try double clicking the border and resizing it as small as you can?
Wow. Looks like a feature that is sure to confuse about 99.999% of any
users.

Try right-clicking on the task manager icon on your task bar, then pressing
move. After that press down on your arrow keys and hold to see if it pops up
out of the side of the screen anywhere.
