No update since May. Is this utility being discontinued?

Bit unusual, although maybe they feel there's been no major 'outbreaks' :confused:

Stinger is a somewhat specialized tool, it only looks for specific items. I've been using their command line scanner in the SuperDAT updates, it runs just as fast and cleans everything.

just curious.
yes, glc, i am using your suggestions for the /ad all drives with scanner.
thanks.
as an observation i use the sdat on really sluggish systems as the first action i take. i have found that after running that scanner i still find bunches of trojans with AV7 once i install and update that.
