-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear all. I'm looking for a way to scan existing Windows XP installations for trojans, viruses etc. The closest match to my needs seems to be Nessus, but I have the following reservation: Since the client has to be installed on the running Windows system, it shouldn't be too hard to fool by some pre-existing trojan. I was therefore wondering, if you know any way of running such a vulnerability scanner from a bootable CD, thus making sure that all benchmarks start from a clean system and results can be trusted.
