Confused about Virus Removal Tool

JRP2706

Hi everyone, this may just be a newbie-type question, but.....

What is the latest version of the Free Virus Removal Tool and where do I get it from?

The Free Tools Get Started box says version 6.2 but version downloaded claims to be version 2.4 when I start to instal it.

Also, there are no Digital Signatures in this version when compared to the previous one I had (2.3 signed 13/02/2013) and the Details tab shows File version as 2.3.0.0 (same the 2.3 one), but Product version as 2.4.

So, as you can see, something is wrong or is it just me getting the update from the wrong place.

Cheers,

JRP2706

    Looks like the version of '6.2' is a typo and should be '2.4' - I'll ask for that to be corrected, thanks.

    Not sure where you are looking, but if I right-click a binary file (e.g., .dll, .exe) in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos Virus Removal Tool\ folder, select 'Properties' and then select the 'Digitial Signatures' tab I see one.
