Uau(don't remember how to spell this in english)! I got a reply at a new time record!

So, Panda install more junk files in the system folder besides the required ActiveX control ?
Yes. I does.
I think i have to install an ActiveX for every online scanner that i want to use.
Some of them does not use ActiveX as a scanning technology as far I know... maybe I'm wrong.
But, is it easy to uninstall it later if i want to, removing also all the files copied to my PC when i use such scanners ?
The activex control could remain in the disk and could remain in registry keys.
You'll need a registry cleaner and a file junk remover.
Yeah, but which one do you think has the best detection rate ? Which one do you recommend ?
Kasperky and TrendMicro. If you need to remove an infection, BidDefender.
Kaspersky (very good detection rates)
ESET NOD32Trendmicro housecallAVGas (does not necessary if you have AVG antispyware installed)
F-SecureBitDefender (free removal of the malware)
HitmanPro (multiply scanners)
I sometimes use the multi-engine VirusTotal, which i like, but it has some important drawbacks (the same as any multi-engine scanner that i know): to use it, i have to submit only one file at a time, and then, wait a significant amount of time until the scan is finished (sometimes it also takes a while to start, depending on the size of the file submitted, its position in queue, etc.). Even worse than that, the file submitted has to be relatively small (i think the size limit is 10 MB). On the good side, it gives a greater sense of security and reliability as it uses multiple (currently 32) antivirus scan engines, and i think it doesn't dump any clutter in my PC, and i don't have to install any ActiveX control in order to use it.
But it's not a full computer scanning, just a file scanner.
You can send the file by email (faster to submit as depend on your email sending speed).
Virus Total is the best, in
our opinion because:
1) It uses the Windows version of the AVs so avast has more unpackers for windows and that is the version most are using.
2) There are 32 different scanning engines greater than the others.
3) It also has an email submission option for periods when they are busy and you get a reply.
4) It can cue the submission and you can carry on browsing and you will eventually (not to long) get your result displayed.
