[comp.virus] Need software to detect PC virus

DOUG%HUGIN%NORWICH.BITNET@VMA.CC.CMU.EDU (11/14/89)

I need to find software to detect and purge viruses from DOS-PC
software.  I have seen vaccine software in magazines and catalogs
but no description of how it functions (whether it automatically
destroys the virus and the software attached, or if it can be a
bit selective).  Can any one elaborate a bit on the value of the
following vaccines or suggest software with which they are familiar.

Compugard Anti-Virus
Flu-Shot+
Flushot(1225)
Mace Vaccine
Virus Killer
