As the title says, are you still using antivirus software or hardware in your Amiga?
 
I had a copy of some PD virus checker and only ever had one or two viruses on my collection of disks.

I think one virus was the Saddam one, the name used to make me LOL as a kid. It was on my Sim City disk.

Did I stop playing Sim City, no! :P
 
I used to use VirusZ, but not now.

My Dad used to work for a company where one of their PC machines was affected by a man who would run onto the screen now and then to steal the odd letter.

I spent one evening cleaning about 20 disks with that crap Saddam virus at a Doctor's house! Was fun though :D
 
The new version of this virus will be called Gaddafi. :p
 
I still use it to test EAB .adf images. Catch a lot of virii in the archives! Same from old "companion" disks from Amigas I bought.

Better safe than sorry, a lamer exterminator infection is not fun at all.
