- Welcome to InoculateIT Personal Edition
-
- Congratulations on choosing InoculateIT Personal Edition
- (InoculateIT PE) to protect your computer against viruses,
- trojans and other malicious software.
-
- InoculateIT is a world class range of anti-virus software which
- can be deployed to suit any business or organisation. InoculateIT
- PE is a cutting edge, high performance virus package specifically
- designed to protect small businesses and home users from everyday
- virus threats.
-
- InoculateIT PE is designed to protect individual computers
- without having to be installed from a network server. If you wish
- to install anti-virus protection to many computers in a business
- environment we recommend you evaluate other anti-virus products
- in the InoculateIT range.
-
- This high quality anti virus tool comes with FREE software
- updates to registered users. It also comes with a promise that if
- you find a virus that InoculateIT PE is unable to detect or clean
- we will send you an emergency signature update in approximately
- 48 hours of receiving a copy of the suspected infected file.
-
- Registered users will also receive FREE Internet E-mail support.
- The answers to many support questions can be found in the
- online help. If you open InoculateIT PE then select Help | Help
- Topics then select "How to get technical support and FAQs" you
- will find the answers to around 80% of the questions that are
- asked of our support team.
-
- By registering, you are automatically subscribed to our FREE
- Virus Threat Notification System as well as our Update
- Notification Service. Anytime a new virus is found that is
- actually spreading around the world, this service will send an E-
- mail to you when a new virus signature update is available. This
- handy service will ensure that you are kept up to date so that
- you are protected against the very latest viruses. The Update
- Notification Service will only alert you when a new virus
- signature is posted on the Internet.
-
-
- Signature Updates
-
- Signature updates for InoculateIT Personal Edition are available
- for FREE from Computer Associates Web site. A signature update
- can be done either manually using a Web browser or semi-
- automatically using the included auto-download utility. In order
- to obtain signature updates either way you must register with
- Computer Associates. To register go to
-
- http://www.antivirus.cai.com/ipe_registration.htm
-
- You will receive a customer ID. You can enter this customer ID
- into the Options Wizard of the InoculateIT Personal Edition
- application (from the main menu Options | Options Wizard). You
- will need both your customer ID and your email you used for
- registration to perform signature updates using a Web browser or
- the auto-download utility.
-
- A customer ID is not required at installation time, registration
- can be done after the installation.
-
-
- Year 2000 Support
-
- We are pleased to advise you that InoculateIT PE currently
- supports Year 2000 processing.
-
- Computer Associates' basic support for the millennium date change
- (Year 2000) provides or will provide for proper operation of our
- products according to the published documentation. In most cases,
- this means simply assuring that dates are evaluated and processed
- properly for sequence and comparison. Testing and Quality
- Assurance processes are carried out to validate the operation of
- these products as related to the millennium date change, and any
- functional errors will be accepted as issues (bugs) and resolved
- according to our standard maintenance and support policies.
-
- As long as your license for each respective CA program remains in
- effect and active on maintenance, you will be entitled to all of
- the benefits of CA's implementation of Year 2000 date support as
- described above. Of course, nothing herein should be deemed to
- modify in any way any of the terms or conditions of any existing
- license between us respecting any CA program.
-
-
- Eicar - A file to test your configuration
-
- This is a program from the European Institute for Computer Anti-
- Virus Research that can help test the virus detection
- capabilities of Anti-Virus software.
-
- This is a small .COM file for DOS that simply prints the message
-
- EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!
-
- when executed. It has the useful property that it consists
- entirely of printable ASCII characters, so you can easily email
- or fax it to someone.
-
- Many anti-virus products will detect this file as if it had a
- virus. Most will give a special message to make it clear that
- this is a test file and not a real virus. For example, when the
- EICAR file is scanned, the following message will be displayed:
-
- Detected the EICAR test string. Not a virus.
-
- The main use of the EICAR test file is to test that your Anti-
- Virus software is configured and operating as you want it to. For
- example, it could be used to test that Real-Time protection is
- active and behaving as you expect.
-
- While this file obviously has absolutely no virus code in it, you
- should only distribute it to people who have a clear
- understanding of what it does. Also, do not store it on
- production machines that run anti-virus software (except as part
- of a deliberate test), as it will probably trigger whatever alarm
- bells are in place.
-
- Please refer to the EICAR Standard Anti-Virus Test File web page
- (www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm) for more information.
- Here is the EICAR test string, in its entirety:
-
- X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*
-
-
- Out of date warning system has been improved.
-
- In the past IPE would bring up an 'out-of-date' warning 180 days
- (6 months) after it was first built. This would help people
- remember that they need to keep their anti-virus software up to
- date if they wish to catch the latest viruses.
-
- Now that we have DAT file updates it is more intelligent to warn
- people to update their DAT file if it has been a while since they
- last installed a DAT file update.
-
- During installation/updating you will be asked how often you
- would like to be reminded to update for the latest protection.
-
-
- Added Directory Tree View button to the browser window to make it
- easier to browse through directories and select files for
- scanning.
-
- We have continued to evolve the interface to make it easier to
- use. One of the ways we can make it easier to use is to make it
- look like other programs that people are already using. This
- change brings the interface in line with recent changes to the
- main MS tools that are used for browsing directories and files.
-
- Some people don't have a lot of screen space and may prefer not
- to use the tree view option. To enable or disable this option
- open IPE and select View | Directory Tree or select the following
- button from the interface.
-
-
- IPE can be used on foreign computers.
-
- Having Double Byte Character Set compliance means that IPE 5.x
- can successfully be run on many machines that do not use English
- as their primary language. So IPE 5.x will work on computers that
- use Chinese, Japanese, Korean and other European or Asian
- languages.
-
-
- Faster floppy boot sector cleaning.
-
- The boot sector protection for floppy disks has been changed so
- that it will now automatically replace any boot sector that is
- considered bad with a copy of a standard boot sector.
-
- WARNING: Some back-up applications use non-standard boot sectors
- for floppy disks. Replacing these boot sectors may cause files to
- become inaccessible. If you must back-up onto floppy disks we
- recommend you scan all files and disks before beginning.
-
-
- New types of files have been added to the list of file types that
- will be scanned.
-
- New viruses are now able to infect PowerPoint files, Access
- database templates and HTML scripts so .PPT, .XLA, .SCR
- extensions have been added to the list of file types that should
- be scanned.
-
-
- IPE is able to scan Office 2000 Word and Excel documents.
-
- Some minor modification of the IPE code has allowed us to build
- in the detection and cleaning of viruses which infect Word and
- Excel 2000 documents. Access 2000 and PowerPoint 2000 detection
- is not yet enabled.
-
-
- IPE can now scan encrypted or password protected Word 6 and Excel documents.
-
- These types of files can sometimes cause problems when IPE
- attempts to scan encrypted files on a network server. These
- improvements allow the files to be scanned.
-
-
- Power Point files for Office 97 can now be scanned.
-
- Viruses can now infect and propagate from PowerPoint files so
- detection and cleaning has been built into this version of IPE.
- Detection for infected PowerPoint files from Office2000 will be
- added at a later date.
-
-
- IPE can now scan files embedded within other files.
-
- Advances in the way common applications can store files means
- that it is now possible to embed a MS Word file inside a
- PowerPoint file. Some types of files that were unlikely to be
- targeted by a virus in the past, can now be targeted for
- infection. In the past it was not possible for IPE to detect an
- infected Excel document when it was embedded in a Word file.
- Improvements in this version of IPE mean that we can now scan and
- clean these embedded files.
-
-
- IPE can now check if you are scanning all of the files that are likely to be infected.
-
- When you upgrade your version of IPE we carefully pick up the way
- you have configured IPE, load the upgrade onto your machine and
- then put the configuration back as it originally was.
-
- From time to time we add a new file extension to the list of
- files that are to be scanned. If you have IPE installed for more
- than a year some file extensions may NOT be in your list of file
- extensions that are to be scanned.
-
- When you are installing your new upgrade you will see the Scan
- File Types. If you chose Next> to continue past the screen and
- your current list of file extensions does not have all of the
- ones we recommend a dialog will appear and prompt to have your
- list of file extensions updated to include all of those
- recommended by IPE.
-
- A copy of the dialog text is below:
-
- ***** Dialog Text Starts Here *****
-
- The IPE Configuration Wizard has detected that the following
- default file-name extensions are missing from your list of files
- to scan: xxx,yyy,zzz,123,abc
-
- These file types are among the most likely to contain a virus in
- the event that your system becomes infected, so it is strongly
- recommended that these file types be included in your list of
- files to scan. Would you like the IPE Configuration Wizard to add
- these for you?
-
- Yes
- No
-
