AFAIK, most virus progs offer an 'Explorer' type display where you can highlight folders/files or drives and check them for viruses (mine does). I'm sure one of our resident experts will correct me if I'm wrong, but if you highlight the message store folder (In OE, 'Tools'/'Options'/'Maintenance'/Store Folder' will direct you) and select 'check for virus' that should do it? Any dubious attachments you just want to check? You can follow the advice on the thread about that on this forum.
