AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic for Windows
*******************************************
Copyright ⌐ 1996-2005 H+BEDV Datentechnik GmbH.
All rights reserved.
New features in Version 6.30
****************************
General
-------
The packages now have a build number, which is stored in the file
BUILD.DAT. In addition to a package number and the date, this file
contains some version information and the package language. The
build number is increased with every new package. The programs now
display the build number in the window "About AntiVir" and in the
logfiles.
AntiVir for Windows 9x/Me
-------------------------
Up to now, the AntiVir Guard for Windows 9x/Me always displayed
alerts on messages concerning viruses and unwanted programs via a
screen in text mode ("blue screen"). The AntiVir Guard now
generally carries out the standard action (normally "Deny access")
and then displays a normal Windows dialog with the inquiry as to
whether further actions are to be carried out with the file and
which ones, e.g. delete, rename, repair, move. The "Repair" option
was removed from the "Search" tab, as it is no longer required due
to conversion of the AntiVir Guard. In the "Action" tab, the
selection "Actions if file not repaired" was renamed as "Handling
concerning files" and converted to a drop-down list. Here the
"Repair" option removed under "Search" can also be selected again.
AntiVir for Windows XP (2000 + NT)
----------------------------------
Separation of the device driver on the NT-platform into two
platform-dependent drivers: one version for Windows NT and one
version for Windows 2000 and XP. With this separation, the extended
possibilities of Windows 2000 and XP can be better supported. The
driver for 2000/XP was renamed from avgntdd.sys to avgntdw.sys. The
name of the driver for NT remains the same.
AntiVir Windows Workstation now supports designs (themes) of
Windows XP. This means that when switching to different
colors/display forms of Windows XP, all AntiVir programs adapt
their dialogs and the associated controls accordingly.
System Requirements
*******************
- Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT, Windows 2000
or Windows XP
- Approx. 14 MB free memory
- Approx. 15 MB free disk space
Considerably more space may be required temporarily!
Installation
************
To install the application please start the relevant application
(SETUP.EXE or AVWINSFX.EXE ) and follow the instructions.
Further information
*******************
With version 6.26 we changed the communication protocol between the
AntiVir Guard Control Program (red umbrella) and the AntiVir Guard
service to TCP/IP under Windows NT, 2000 and XP. Please note that
the Control Program communicates only with the local system at
127.0.0.1 (localhost) and NOT with the Internet. If you have a
Personal Firewall like Kerio, Outpost, ZoneAlarm or Norton Internet
Security installed, this tool might issue a warning message
regarding a connection request of AVGNT.EXE (connection request to
port 18350) and an 'act as server' request of AVGUARD.EXE to the
same port. Please make sure that your firewall in is 'learning
mode' and that you allow this actions of AntiVir. It might be also
a good idea to select the option 'remeber this answer and don't ask
me again'.
If problems occur with the display of the interface in the main
window AntiVir for Windows under Windows NT (transparent
background), the update file 50COMUPD.EXE of Microsoft must be
started. This file can be found on the Internet under:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/
Comctl32/5.80.2614.3600/W9XNT4/EN-US/50comupd.exe
