Confused about Virus Removal Tool

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,

  • Hi,

    We rebuild the tool whenever we publish new identities, to reduce the amount of updating you need to do when you run it the first time. The version only gets updated when we actually add new capabilities.

    I wanted to thank you for highlighting the issue with the digital signature, this is due to a break in one of our internal system and is being worked on as we speak.

    Again thanks for the feedback it helps me and the team a lot so keep it up,
