What to do if you find a new virus...
If a new virus appears, F-PROT may miss it, or report it either as a "New
variant of ..." or "Possibly a new variant of ...". In this case we may
not have a copy of the virus, but would of course appreciate receiving it.
The same applies to false alarms - despite our precautions they may
occasionally appear, but we always try to correct them as soon as
possible. This is particularly important for false alarms generated by
Secure scan, but we also try to fix any false alarms created by the
heuristic scanner.
There are several methods that can be used to send files to us:
1) The best method involves anonymous FTP to ftp.f-prot.com, and putting the
files in the /incoming directory. JUST DO NOT FORGET TO UPLOAD THE
FILES IN BINARY MODE! This directory is write-only, but for added
security the files may be encrypted. We recommend PGP 2.3 (or later)
(see public key below), but PKZIP or ARJ encryption is probably
sufficient, provided the password is sent via a more secure route -
such as via fax. If you use FTP, please don't use an "obvious" name
such as NEWVIR.ZIP - although we download the files regularly, there is
always a chance of a new upload overwriting an earlier one - in
particular as you cannot check which files are in the directory.
NOTE: If using PGP, please do not use the personal keys of Fridrik
Skulason or Vesselin Bontchev - use the public key of Frisk Software
International (included below).
2) The files may also be E-mailed to f-prot@f-prot.com. Sending them
as binary attachments is just fine, as well as XX- or UUencoded files.
BtoA amd BinHex require extra work so we would appreciate if you
could avoid those formats.
You can also use PGP with the -A switch to create a file that can be
sent by E-mail.
