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

    Thanks ruckus for getting the Get Started version corrected.

    However, I have just re-downloaded the tool and the downloaded tool has grown from 71.0Mb to 72.3Mb but there is still no Digital Signature and the Details Tab still shows the mismatch between File Version and Product Version as I originally described.

    So, if the tool has been rebuilt, why have these oversights not been addressed, particularly the Digital Signature ommission which for a Security Company seems a bit strange?

    Also, if the tool has been rebuilt why is the version still 2.4, surely it should be now 2.5 or something higher?
