NanoScan : The Fastest Online Virus Scan

NanoScan is an extremely fast online virus scanner developed by Panda Software. It takes only about 1-2 minutes to scan your whole PC for over a million of potential threats. Please note that NanoScan only checks for problems; it doesn’t fix them. However, if it finds some virus or any other kind of undesirable crapware you can click through provided scan reports and access TotalScan. To use TotalScan you’ll need to register, but the good news it’s 100% free. TotalScan will find those threats and remove them.

    Nanoscan needs to access your system files so it’s normal that you get such warnings.

    ugh.. you’re kinda dumb computer-wise aren’t you
    it doesn’t scan your WHOLE PC for viruses in 2 minutes,cuz that would be impossible. it only scans for active malware running at the time of scan.
    if you don’t understand it, don’t talk about it.
