A few versions ago, John McAfee replaces SCANRES (which had some TSR conflicts and generally didn't do a wonderful job in some instances) with a new program called VSHIELD. Look for a VSHIELD with the same version as the current SCAN on SIMTEL20. As of about a week ago, the place to look on Simtel is: PD1:VSHLD66.ZIP That's the most current version last time I checked. Another plus about VSHIELD is that it will scan your system files on each bootup. It takes under 10K of RAM. David Lemson d-lemson@uiuc.edu
