I'm looking for a free online virus scanner that will work with netscape 7.0? I tried housecall from trend macro but it didn't work so any others would be appreciated
 
The Trendmicro's housecall runs on Netscape too:
To use HouseCall, you will need either Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 4.0 or above) or Netscape Navigator (version 3.01 or above).

It could be some security setting on your computer that blocks the execution of online antivirus programs (or some virus).
 
i told u they don't work with netscape except trnedmicro which didnt work anyways...not trying to be a jerk here just tryin to get some help
 
Please tell me exactly what's happening when you access trendmicro's housecall.
I had a problem with housecall on a computer: the program download stopped at 10% and nothing more happened. It turned out that the firewall blocked the program installation.

what do u meant by on-lien virus scanner? your statement really made me confused man, anyway, if you are thinkig about that ur files are scanned that u get from on-line. then I am using both Norton and McCafee. once they get downloaded, both deletes the files, Norton at least gives u prompt that this file has virus, McCafee straight away use eraser, and thereafter tells u, what it has done :)

I tried with subseven trojan, moment i unzipped the folder, woosh,,every thing inside with potential trojans got deleted.

ok, thats for downlaoding files straight away, both will as well work on your POP mail account by default, also Norton 2003/4 works on Messangers as well. as far as web based e-maisl are concerned, yahoo is alrady giving support (also tried zipped trojan for test, and it sisnt sent telling me that it has got trojan), and hotmail has very recently started.

i hope I answered questions, if not still, tell me specifiacally what are you lookin for?


*-sorry for spell mistakes as now its been 32 hours i didnt slept :)

Sorry i missed that. :S

Have you considerd AVG Antivirus? It's not online but its free :)
 
When I try to use trendmicro it starts to load the java and then sends me to another page that says "sorry page not found" every time.
 
I'm sure that connecting to the internet doesnt connect your entire hard drive so how can u scan someone elses computer without remote assistance?

Actually the virus scanning is made off-line. On-line means that when you access that site the antivirus program downloads itself to your computer.
There is a major advantage using online virus scanner instead of good-for-nothing memory-resident antivirus: the virus description files are up-to-date.
