but then the script that you produce will be made for you own site and they 
cannot be generalized beyond a point and how will you take care of the 
variations of the various computers like the servers / secretaries computers / 
high power workstations  which will all have different startup entries and 
other help objects. at the most the script will create a report that you can 
diff and see manually and decide what computers to visit. this in my humble 
opinion is not good for a big enterprise, there you require something that when 
run automatically disinfects and cures all the other malware when it detects 
it, can be updated from one central location and be run from a login script - 
this would a solution that is required.
