- 6.08 Product update
- -------------------
-
- TbDriver:
- - Minor modification to avoid sharing violations.
-
-
- TbScan:
- - TbScan now warns you if the signature file is older than 6 months.
- You can disable this by using command line option 'old'.
-
- - TbScan now attempts to read the whole signature file in XMS memory.
- This improves performance when TbScan needs to consult the signature
- file frequently (like when scanning a virus collection), and it
- enables you to scan a diskette when TbScan itself is executed from
- a diskette. Previously, TbScan was not able to display the
- name of the virus when the diskette with the signature info was
- removed. (Option 'compat' disables the use of XMS memory).
