Mount it with ntfs-3g, scan it with clam after updating the virus signatures |
| 13 |
(freshclam) and then remove or copy away infected files. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Alternatively, it may be possible to dd the partition and pipe it to clam (not |
| 16 |
sure if this will work with a whole partition instead of a file) using |
| 17 |
something like: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
dd if=/dev/sda1 | clamscan - |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
|

Alternatively, you can use Knoppix and Fprot, bitdefender and clam. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Or, you can use the many LiveCDs and Live-USBs that Kaspersky, BitDefender, et |
| 25 |
al are producing these days. |
