uments and settings\abcdefg\desktop\sophos virus removal tool.exe
C:\Utilities>
<<<Snip
Unfortunately after the scan and before I got to the computer we had a minor power outage.
When I got to the computer I had to go to the logs to get the results and found this in the latest log for ver. 2.4
Snip>>>

<<<Snip
I was lucky, no virus, but I just thought you should know...
Since there are no hashes posted on the Download site I was also wondedring if I got the correct file.
2 - I have a 10 year old P4, 2.4 GHz desktop w/1Gb of RAM and a 35Gb HDD, at 75% full,,, the scan took over 5 hours.
Is that normal??
