Just discovered this real old thread from the dust...

I had this virus killer since the old days and enjoyed it a lot, but recently I lost the disk, so I am searchuing for it as well.
My version was not a bootblock installer, however. I had to boot the Seek & Destroy disk, then put the infected disk in the drive, and click on CHECK. It would then show the bootblock in ASCII, and detect if it was a virus. In thios case you could install the disk by clicking KILL.

I will have a look on my old HD, maybe I did an ADF of it years ago ?!

Just in case it's still of use to anyone, I have restored jasonver2.0's post at #2, which was originally deleted by him after getting no response.

Thanks Prowler, and thanks JasonVer2.0.
I have meanwhile found my old bootable Seek'n Destroy disk, but noticed that it is not V1.4, but V1.1beta instead.
Anyway, it always worked very nice for me and I cannot remember any virus that was not detected by it ?

Still, I will try to get VirusZ III since I have heard this one should be able to detect and kill even more viruses ?

Oh yeah, definitely. It's also capable of staying in memory and killing viruses on disks that are inserted.
