Online Virus Scan and Repair Help

I am looking for a reliable online scan and repair offer. The only one I have really looked into is STOP which will scan and repair at a one time price of $34.99. I'm really not looking for a monthly membership, just a one time fix. Any suggestions? Thanks!
 
Not 100% sure but I believe Symantec (makers of Norton products) has a good online virus scan. Have not used it but they do make good software.
 
panda has a good on-line scan

I am using symantec live update and symatec security check since 2001, it is indeed top quality stuff.

i use these too. i love these. immediate action taken by symantec's live update. you really dont have to do anything except make sure the software is up to date. i run tests every week. always comes up roses.

Northon Ghost and Norton System Works are useful as well. The 2007 version of Norton will be more performing and using less memory.

here is a link with the 1.5.08 version of firefox but as firefox says "Firefox 1.5.0.x will be maintained with security and stability updates until April 24, 2007. All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to Firefox 2."

Also check the compatobility extension before resintalling version 2 the next time.

thanks. but it seems its not worth it. only a couple of months of security updates? nah, i will just concentrate on fixing mine.

It's good to be the king...
Always used Norton.

Had a few virus scares on my previous PC, but so far all's well with my current one........

Forget buying stuff: google microsoft anti spyware, spybot, and ad aware. If stuffs getting past those 3, then you're looking at way too many sketchy porn sites.

I use ad aware se pro, spy swpeer and spyware blaster and those are enough good for me. Never had a single virus since 1998, I once got the biggest spy ever (spyaxe) and had to reformat my pc in 2002 besides taht all ok.
