I do not know of any program that scans an executable that has been compressed using PKLITE. As a matter of fact I have just been infected by the 1260 virus that was hidden in a file that was compressed using PKLITE. Scan75 does not detect the virus until the file has been uncompressed. jtucker@rckhrst1
