F-Prot 2.27 by Frisk Software International. Reg.Fee: $0-$20+
scans disks, hard drives, and all network drives for viruses using one of 3 methods: a secure scan which is slow, but makes an accurate identification; full scan which is a little faster, or a quick scan that only searches for known variants. It detects 250 families of viruses. It scans diskettes or your entire system, and allows the addition of a user-defined hexadecimal search pattern with wildcards. It performs an analysis of the memory allocation, programs, and boot sectors. It reports a list of infected files, disinfects files, and renames the infected files so they may not be executed. Optionally scans DOC and DOT files for Microsoft Word Macro-based viruses.

DOSLFNBK 2.1 by Duncan J. Murdoch. Reg.Fee: $50
is a file back-up and restoration program for DOS which supports Windows 95 long file names. Some back up programs do not recognize long file names, causing improper backups. Worse yet, the back up program included with Win95 doesn't support a lot of common backup hardware and will not run in DOS mode. This program remedies these problems and also allows partial back-ups and partial restores, writes back-up reports, and more.
