FREEWARE - Multi Antivirus Scanning Tool

Multi AV Scanning Tool by David H. Lipman is a malware removal utility incorporating multiple command line scanners including McAfee, Sophos, Kaspersky and Trend engines.




Here is how to run Multi AV Scanning tool in your computer.
1. Download Multi_AV.exe from the link at the end of this article.

2. Run Multi_AV.exe (You must use the default folder C:\AV-CLS)

3. Run StartMenu.BAT or double-click on ‘Start Menu‘ shortcut from C:\AV-CLS folder.

There are two modes of operation: Remove/Delete and Detect Only. The software defaults to the Remove/Delete mode which means that any files that are deemed to be infected will be automatically removed from the system and can which can not be cleaned. If you desire to use the Multi AV Scanning Tool just to detect and not delete malware, you can hit the letter “D” and place the software in a Detect Only mode of operation. Those files found to be infected by malware will be logged but not cleaned nor deleted from the system. These two modes of operation are only for the McAfee, Sophos and Kaspersky modules since the Trend Micro Sysclean utility has a GUI selection for detection with or without file deletion.

Included in the C:\AV-CLS folder is a file called killproc.txt and is used to shutdown or kill running processes prior to scanning the platform. There are two processes already in the text file. iexplore.exe (Internet Explorer) and firefox.exe (FireFox).



You can add more file names in the text file making sure the last line is a blank line. You can also bring up the killproc.txt text file by hitting the “E” key in Multi-AV menu.

Multi AV Scanning Tool website no longer accessible but it’s still a very good free multiple antivirus program that can be used to scan and remove viruses.

Note: The directory C:\AV-CLS is hard coded and should not be changed. Multi AV should be used to remove an infection from your computer. They are not a replacement for realtime antivirus protection but they are an effective tool to remove malware (viruses etc.) from an infected machine where antivirus software is disabled, out-of-date or even if it is not installed at all.
