If you are responding to someone asking for help who
may not be a member of this list, be sure to use the
REPLY TO ALL feature of your email program.

Do you have a folder that says "VirusScan for OS/2"? Assuming so, then you should
have the "VirusScan" program object (with the magnifying glass icon), MANUAL.PDF
(to be read with Acrobat or GSView), a readme file, the "Schedule Editor", and the
uninstall utility.

It does not care if the drive is FAT or HPFS (I don't have a JFS drive so I don't know if it
will scan a JFS drive). On my Thinkpad my Win 98 partition is hidden from OS/2 so I
don't know if the OS/2 version would scan a FAT32 drive.
