Hi friends,
Could you recommend a secondary virus scanner? I am already using Microsoft Security Essentials for active system monitoring. I'm just looking for a file scanner not a program that will run active checks.
Thanks in advance!

Hi
You don't need a secondary scanner first because when you have a secondary scanner the primary scanner will be active on take care of scanning. So keep one best virus scanner that I enough.
Thank You

Hi Hunter!
If you are looking for a software that can become a good backup to your Microsoft Security Essentials, you can use Spybot Search & Destroy. It is an anti-spyware that deep scans your computer with existing spyware, adware and worms that your Security Essentials may overlook. Additionally, it has a immunization option that blocks all known spyware and adware sites in its database.
It can be downloaded from http://www.safer-networking.org/dl/.
I hope this helps! Thanks!
