Run Anti Virus, Find And Uniinstall Anti Virus

...to the originally quarantined viri?

Are they unleashed upon your system again?

I am thinking first Sophos, then Nod 32...

When you uninstall the AV nothing is released into your system.

I can highly recommend the nod32 as I use it on several machines and in the past seven years it has never missed a virus in the wild. No other AV can say that.

I used to be a proud user of Noron Symantec anti-virus, but it's become very memory hungry and misses a lot of viruses - largely due to their weekly update. I use NOD32 on work machines and Kaspersky on my laptops. Both are excellent as they seem to update their virus signatures hourly.

Once viruses are quarantined they remain so until you delete the files in the Quarantine folder.

They're gone. No longer a threat.

A lot of time was wasted.
