 I just started trying to get command line virus scanners going, back in the
DOS days I had 3 scan the new files, nowdays there are many  problems that
can come up due to conflicts with each other, I even deleted my Windows,
Program Files & Documents & Settings just to get rid of all the garbage
files & I used BartPE & it works very nice!, Bart PE is even better than the
Linux Live Disks I tried out so far even counting Ubuntu (there are lots of
Linux versions).
 I mainly want to know of any command line virus scanners that work with
each other folks might have tried,

 Here are a couple...
Avast:
"C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\ashQuick.exe" %1

ClamWin, I deleted my batch but it was something this, I am missing zip, rar
& all that right now:
clamscan.exe --database="C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\.clamwin\db" %1
(clamscan.exe --help) as I recall giess the command lines, I do not have it
installed right now...

 Back in the DOS days I used F-Prot McaFee & Norton (all DOS versions) & it
worked pretty good, I thing I used AVP for DOS too.
 Download managers can run virus scanners & there is even a Firefox plugin
to scan downloads so why not all of us slam AV.bat out?

 Now the way I see it is if there is little space on a hard drive or little
resources on a computer call should be used such as:

call avast %1
call clamwin %1

 There are tons of AV programs out there but if anyone has compatable ones I
very much would like to see it!
 Thanx everyone!
