F-PROT introduction
The F-PROT anti-virus package consists of the following files:
F-PROT.EXE The main program (DOS version)
SIGN.DEF DOS/Windows virus search/disinfection information
MACRO.DEF Word/Excel virus search/disinfection information
ENGLISH.TX0 A message file for English
SETUPFS.EXE A self-installing version of the F-STOPW VXD
for Windows '95 users. This is a "resident" scanner
which will check files before they are accessed or
executed. When SETUPFS is installed it will create
documentation files, describing its use.
SETUPFM.EXE A self-installing version of the F-MACROW
Word/Excel virus scanner for Windows users. When it
is installed it will create documentation files,
describing its use.
*.TXT Some documentation files, including this one.
*.ASC PGP signature files
If you are running any version of Windows, you can use both the F-PROT and
F-MACROW programs. Please note that for the purpose of detecting and
removing Word/Excel viruses, the F-PROT and F-MACROW programs are equally
good - the difference is that F-PROT is a DOS application, which also
detects other viruses, while F-MACROW is a Windows application that *only*
detects Word and Excel viruses.
If you are running Windows '95, you can also use the F-STOPW program.
If you are running DOS, OS/2 or any other non-Windows operating system,
you can only use the F-PROT program (provided the OS allows you to run
DOS applications, that is).
Running F-PROT
If the F-PROT program is run in interactive mode, you get a screen which
shows the available functions. You can use the arrow keys to move around
the screen, and press <ENTER> when you wnat to select an action.
