Found this old promotional image on my computer from a few years ago, an old antivirus from the now defunct Machineworks. Was a very basic on demand scanner. My notes suggest about an 80% detection rate. Just wondered if anyone had a copy or knew where I could get one? The website is long since down and the wayback machine doesn't archive downloads :(

My thinking: do NOT search to download outdated software, if not you will get the virus? Yes?

- so to get the virus packs - search on our Virus Exchange section rather .. please

Lol, I'm not silly enough to be considering using this as a serious AV product, just wanted to get a copy of nostalgia reasons. To analyse as it's method of detection is not 'signature' or hash based but uses byte n-grams which at the time was quite unique.
