| I clicked Yes. The scan did not run but the NT based OS AV Command Line

| Nothing happened.
| I rebooted the computer, accessed the appropriate folder and after the NT

| The following error message was displayed:
| c:\AV-CSL\McAfee\update.ini not opened for READ, error code [0]
|
| I run another RootKitRevealer Scan which found one (1) discrepancy:
| Path: C:\Document and Settings\Pattaya2005\LocalSettings\Temp\~DFEE6C.tmp

| Well David, I hope all this helps to come up with a solution, Thanks!!

Kayman:

That is indicative that disabling both FireWalls was key to allowing FTP.EXE to download the
needed files. On my McAfee VirusScan Enterprise v7.1 the file "SDStbRes.dll" was not found.
Are you using the retail version McAfee VirusScan v6 ? My scripts and McAfee have NO
dependency upon "SDStbRes.dll" which leads me to believe you do ahve this version of
software.

In any case, *IF* you do, disable McAfee v6.0 and the FireWalls and proceed to download.
You may have to reboot prior to doing so asd the PC was have been less stable by said error.

However, you ran Trend and Sophos OK and neither found anything. Yoy may want to just run
them again as it has been a few days and there are NEW signatures since the initial run and
ignore the McAfee section.

Then I would also suggest getting back to the ROOT of the problem as to what software
declared SPR/Madtol.C and in what file (fully quallified name and path).
