That's it Antivirus Live CD is a Linux distribution based on 4MLinux and includes the ClamAV scanner. It has been created for system administrators who need a lightweight live CD with an antivirus scanner. The new version has just been released and is available for download.
As the name implies, the main function of this tool is to search for viruses in your system. Updates for new viruses that have occurred can be downloaded from the Internet before you begin the scanning process.
