Maybe you forgot to put a virus scanning package on your computer. Maybe you didn’t want to spend the money. Maybe you like get viruses on your computer. Whatever your reason is, help is out there. Many vendors began putting virus scanning online as incentives to capture customers. You might be wondering why you would want to buy a program for your own machine then? The answer lies in the fact that online virus scanning packages don’t constantly monitor your own pc. This is a big drawback. I always highly recommend folks install an anti-virus package on their machine. But, if you ever find yourself in a bind, try these online services:

-Trend Micro’s Housecall Scanner
-Panda Scanner
-RAV Scanner
-Computer Associate Scanner

There are others out there, but this is a good sampling. I have used Housecall many times when folks are in a bind. Happy computing.
