:'[ This VBScript is 328 lines, 12.025 bytes (this line excluded) ].
' You can put this VBScript either in

'
' In Startup Folder:
'       After each boot, a record would be created in TEMP.
'       If a virus; something or someone modifyied your
'       system, it would be yelling and you'll know.
'
' If else where:
'       On double click, a record would be created in TEMP.

  Description.HTA  (do NOT use the extension HTM or HTML).


TIPS: Run "Description.HTA" from within a folder with some DOC or ZIP files.



NOTE: If you have installed the very BAD virus namely "Norton's Anti Virus",
then the Description.HTA won't work very fine. If so, then you should simply
get an Anti-Virus-Software which isn't a virus itself; and you'll be allowed
to use your computer for simple batch programming BAT, HTA, WSF, VBS, etc...
