Oh dear. You're scanning your LINUX file system here, aren't you? I think you may have missed a little something here. There are no linux viruses, and the virus scanners "for linux" are meant to scan WINDOWS files and executables. It's simply a huge waste of time to scan your linux files. I suggest you change the above to just scan the subdirectories you use to store MS docs and exe:s. That should reduce the running time of the scan. For keeping your linux system secure, look at tripwire and similar products, and chkrootkit (www.chkrootkit.org). regards Anders
