Pros: Freeware tool that targets and destroys the most common and current viruses once they hit your system, small profile makes it a perfect fit for USB drives
Cons: Won't block incoming nasties — you'll need to keep your antivirus protection running (and up to date) in addition to Stinger; not the faster scanner — scanning large drives takes considerable time
