1. Click on the link below to Trend Micro's FREE Online Virus Scanning Utility - Housecall for PC's. This product will scan your computer for viruses. If a virus is found - choose the Clean Option. If the virus is uncleanable - take your computer to a computer repair shop.

The Housecall Virus Scan WILL NOT protect your computer against future viruses. For that you will need to purchase a virus protection program such as Trend Micro PC-cillin.
