    flash drive resident antimalware app?
    « on: March 18, 2010, 02:35:41 PM »
    Sorry, I accidentally posted this before in the Windows XP forum. This is where it belongs.

    A while back someone suggested having, as part of your antimalware arsenal, some app that could be installed on a flash drive which could supposedly detect any spyware / malware on whatever computer the flash drive was plugged into. (I think the app was DOS-based, and it could work even if the system was severely compromised, although I'm not sure about those two points.) Could anybody tell me about this app? And would it detect a key logger?

    You already have a thread going on this with responses in it. A second thread will only cause duplicated efforts. Just PM a mod to move your original thread.
