Live CD with good anti-virus software to scan/repair Windows?

I browsed through the archives, and it seems like there's no live CD from which to run a good, up-to-date anti-virus application, at least to check whether a Windows host has been compromised



  • The Ultimate Boot CD has only three AV applications, and their virus definition is from... 2007

  • In a report, ClamAV scored very low. It's nice that it's open-source, but if it's not as good as commercial alternatives...


Those of you into this kind of thing, do you confirm that there's just no good live CD to inspect Windows hosts, and possibly repair them? If there is, what do you recommend?


Thank you.
