- NF1 - NEW FEATURES
-
- * McAfee VirusScanÆs anti-virus products, including
- VirusScan software, now use the Microsoft Windows
- Installer (MSI), which comes with all Windows
- 2000 Professional systems. This Setup utility
- offers a wealth of custom installation and
- configuration features.
-
- * McAfee VirusScan uses scan engine v4.0.70 and
- the DAT file release v4088. These components
- ensure that your computer gets regular
- updates for McAfee VirusScan's virus definition
- (.DAT) files needed to detect new viruses and
- respond more effectively in removing virus threats
- from your computer.
-
- For more information, see the User's Guide PDF
- file and read appendix on the .DAT technology.
-
- * VirusScan interface now supports platforms
- solidly into the territory VirusScan for Windows 95,
- Windows 98 and Windows ME. This adds extensive VShield
- scanner configuration options for the Windows NT
- Workstation v4.0 and Windows 2000 Professional
- platforms, while reducing the complexity of some
- previous configuration options.
-
- * Addition of a new VirusScan control panel, which
- functions as a central point from which you can
- enable and disable all VirusScan components.
- This control panel also lets you set a ceiling for
- the number of items you can scan in or exclude from
- a single operation, and can set the VShield scanner
- and VirusScan control panel to run at startup.
-
- * New VShield system tray icon states tell you more
- about which VShield modules are active.
-
- * New interface settings for task configuration
- allow you to tell the VirusScan application how
- you want it to appear as your scheduled task runs
- and what you want it to do when it finishes. You can
- also set a password to protect individual task
- settings from changes, or to protect an entire
- task configuration at once.
-
- * An updated randomization feature for scheduled tasks
- allows you to set a time for the task to run, then
- set a randomization window. The VirusScan Console then
- picks a random time within the window to actually
- start the task.
-
- * System Scan module action options now include a
- new Prompt Type configuration option for Windows
- 95, Windows 98 and Windows ME systems.

-
- 5. Click Finish in the final setup screen.
- Note: By default, the Readme file appears in Notepad.
- If you do not want to read the release notes in the
- Readme file, clear the check in the View release notes?
- check box before you click Finish.
-
-
- * IN2 - TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION *
-
- The EICAR Standard AntiVirus Test File is a
- combined effort by anti-virus vendors
- throughout the world to implement one
- standard by which customers can verify their
- anti-virus installations.
-
- To test your installation, copy the following
- line into its own file, then save the file
- with the name EICAR.COM.
-
- X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*
-
- The file size will be 68 or 70 bytes.
-
- Next, start your anti-virus software and allow
- it to scan the directory that contains
- EICAR.COM. When your software scans this file,
- it will report finding the EICAR test file.
-
- Note that this file is NOT A VIRUS. Delete the
- file when you have finished testing your
- installation to avoid alarming unsuspecting
- users.
-
-
- __________________
- KN1 - KNOWN ISSUES
-
- 1. The 'format using installed OS' rescue disk will
- not function properly for Windows 95 users. The
- NAI-OS rescue disk must be used.
-
- 2. Windows 2000 and Windows NT users with NTFS
- partitions will recieve errors if they attempt
- to scan with the NAI-OS rescue disk.
-
- This issue is currently being investigated.
-
- 3. When modifying the properties of the Safe and Sound
- component, users must have at least one drive
- checked. Failure to do this will result in an
- Invalid Page Fault (IPF).
-
- 4. From the McAfee VirusScan Central window, when you
- click Options and select VShield Wizard from the
- drop-down menu, the system does not launch the
- wizard.
-
- This issue is currently being investigated.
-
- 5. If you use a utility such as McAfee DISKTUNE or
- Microsoft SCANDISK to verify your hard disk
- integrity, McAfee strongly recommends that you first
- disable the VShield scanner. Because the VShield
- scanner and the Scandisk utility use similar
- methods to check files on your hard disk, having
- both active simultaneously can cause conflicts.
-
- Some users may experience conflicts when using
- the 'Thorough' option in Microsoft's SCANDISK.
- You may need to manually reset the system. Once
- the system is reset, SCANDISK will automatically
- run on some systems. This is usually performed
- with the 'Standard' option enabled. Let SCANDISK
- complete its task and your system will return to
- its normal state.
-
- 6. Disk defragmentation programs move files as they
- work to maximize hard disk efficiency. If you
- have the VShield scanner, the VirusScan
- application, or another application active
- during a disk defragmentation operation, your
- defragmentation program might tell you that it
- cannot find the active application files. This
- is normal and does not mean that the files do
- not exist. To avoid error messages like this,
- close all open applications and disable the
- VShield scanner, then run your disk
- defragmentation operation again.
-
- 7. If you have never installed software that uses
- the Microsoft Installer (MSI) utility, or if you
- installed Microsoft Office 2000 or other
- software that uses MSI v1.0, the VirusScan Setup
- utility must first install certain files it
- needs for the VirusScan installation. Setup then
- will ask you to restart your computer. After you
- do so, you may continue with the installation.
-
- 8. Some cleanable Macro infections may be reported
- as uncleanable by the on demand scanner. If you
- scan an infected file and receive a dialog with
- a disabled CLEAN button, use VShield to clean
- the file. Right-click on the file and select
- Properties. VShield will detect this infected
- file. Use the CLEAN option to remove the infection.
-
- 9. If McAfee VirusScan Central is run while VShield
- is not loaded, some users may experience a crash
- in VSMAIN.EXE. You will need to load VShield manually.
-
- To load VShield manually, open your Control Panel. Do
- this by clicking Start > Settings > Control Panel.
- Open the VirusScan Control Panel Applet. Under the
- Service tab, you will see a Stop\Start button for
- VirusScan. Start the service from here. You may need
- to stop the service then start it.
-
- 10.Windows NT 4.0 users may experience a crash in
- VSMAIN.EXE while scanning. Service Pack 4 or higher
- must be installed to fix this issue.
-
- 11.Restoring a file that has been quarantined from
- a Zip file archive may cause conflicts. This issue only
- occurs when a single file, within a Zip archive, is
- quarantined and an attempt to restore that file back
- to the archive is made.
-
- This issue is currently being investigated.
-
- 12.The VirusScan about box does not display the
- correct version number. Version 5.1 is displayed.
- The correct version is v5.11. Scheduler and
- VShield in the system tray also show the wrong
- version info. The correct version is v5.11.
-
- 13.Using DOS memory managers might cause the
- VirusScan software to falsely detect viruses in
- memory. Since Windows 95 and Windows 98 no
- longer require DOS memory managers, you can
- eliminate false warnings by preceding each
- line in your CONFIG.SYS file that includes
- settings for a DOS memory manager with REM.
- This deactivates the memory manager. To learn
- more about working with your CONFIG.SYS file,
- see your DOS or Windows documentation.
-
- 14.This release will detect and remove the XF/SIC.A
- virus from infected Microsoft Excel documents.
- If you later use Excel 97 to open a file from
- which the VirusScan application has removed
- this virus, Excel will tell you that it cannot
- find a particular worksheet within the file at a
- particular cell reference. It will also tell you
- that continuing could damage your worksheet and
- ask you whether you want to cancel your request
- to open the file. The worksheet name it mentions
- will vary.
-
- You may safely open the worksheet. Click No in the
- confirmation dialog box to continue.
-
- To prevent the message from reappearing, open
- the document in Excel, click the Insert menu,
- point to Name, then choose Define. In the dialog
- box that appears, delete the entries Auto_Open
- and Auto_Close. Save and close the file
- normally.
-
- 15. The VShield scanner's Internet Filter module
- does not block any IP addresses you have
- asked it to block if you connect to the Internet
- through America Online.
-
- 16.If you use software that blocks online
- advertisements, such as Ads-Off, while you have
- the VShield scanner active, your system could
- become unstable.
-
- 17.If you have the VShield Internet Filter module
- set to detect hostile Java classes or applets
- and to offer you the choice to block them or
- allow them through, the VShield scanner will
- display an alert message twice when it finds a
- hostile object: once when the Download Scan
- module detects the item as it writes to your
- hard disk, then again when the Internet
- Filter module detects it as your browser
- software tries to execute it.
-
- You may tell the Download Scan module to delete
- the item or move it to a quarantine folder when
- it detects it, or you can have the Internet
- Filter module block the item before your browser
- software can execute it.
-
-
- 18.If your computer runs Windows NT Workstation
- v4.0 or Windows 2000 Professional, the VShield
- scanner will not delete macro viruses it
- finds even if you have set the scanner to do
- so. To protect these systems from macro
- viruses, set the scanner to clean infected
- files, move them to a quarantine folder, or
- deny access to them.
-
-
- 19.If you install the VirusScan software to its
- default program directory, remove the software,
- then reinstall it into a different program
- directory, Microsoft Outlook will not locate the
- extension it needs to open the E-Mail Scan
- application.
-
- To remedy this problem, delete the file
- EXTEND.DAT, which you'll find in your Windows
- user directory. On Windows NT Workstation v4.0
- systems, you'll find this file in this path
- by default:
-
- C:\Winnt\profiles\<your profile>\Application Data
- \Microsoft\Outlook\EXTEND.DAT
-
- On Windows 2000 Professional systems, you'll
- find the file in this path by default:
-
- C:\Documents and Settings\<your profile>
- \Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
-
- On Windows 95 and Windows 98 systems, you'll
- find the file in this path by default:
-
- C:\Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
-
- NOTE: If you create more than one profile on any
- of these systems, Microsoft Outlook will
- create an EXTEND.DAT file for each
- profile. If you move the VirusScan
- software, McAfee recommends that you
- delete the EXTEND.DAT file in each profile
- you use on your computer and allow Outlook
- to re-create it.
-
- 20.Internet Filter module support for the NeoPlanet
- v5.0 browser and America Online browsers is
- incomplete in this release. If you set the
- Internet Filter module to block particular
- URLs or IP addresses, then use the NeoPlanet or
- America Online browsers to visit an IP address
- you've blocked, you can still connect to the
- banned site.
-
- For the NeoPlanet browser, you can work around
- this issue by entering only URLs in the browser
- window--the Internet Filter module will
- correctly block banned sites entered as URLs.
-
- 21.The ScreenScan utility included with this
- VirusScan release does not include support for
- Windows 2000 Professional.
-
- 22.If you have installed any previous version of
- VirusScan for Microsoft Outlook software, last
- released immediately following the W97M/Melissa
- outbreak in 1999, you must first remove this
- software before you install VirusScan v5.1
- software.
-
- The Microsoft Installer Setup utility for
- VirusScan v5.1 software will NOT remove
- VirusScan for Outlook software.
-
- 23.You may not use .VSC files you created for use
- with earlier VirusScan releases to start scan
- operations with this VirusScan release. This
- VirusScan release will not correctly interpret
- all of the settings saved in the older .VSC
- file.
-
-
- 24.If you have the VShield System Scan module
- active on a Windows 95 or Windows 98 system
- when you use Network Associates PGPdisk
- software to mount an encrypted volume, the
- PGPdisk software will freeze.
-
- As a workaround, first disable the System Scan
- module, then use PGPdisk to mount the encrypted
- drive. You can then enable the System Scan
- module again. At that point, both PGPdisk and
- the System Scan module will function normally.
-
- PGPdisk software comes included with the PGP
- Desktop Client Security Suite v6.5.x.
-
- 25.If you have the GroupShield Exchange client
- scanner installed on your computer, you must
- first remove it in order to use the VirusScan
- E-Mail Scan extension to scan your e-mail. If
- you prefer to use the GroupShield Exchange
- client, you should NOT install the VirusScan
- E-Mail Scan module or extension during Setup
- or, if you have already installed the module
- and extension, you should remove them.
-
- To ensure that the module and extension are not
- installed on your computer, run Setup, then
- choose Custom as your installation option. Next,
- right-click the E-Mail Scan item, then choose
- This Feature Will Not Be Available from the
- shortcut menu that appears.
-

- ________________________________
- FQ1 - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
- Regularly updated lists of frequently asked questions
- about McAfee products are also available on the
- Network Associates website, on CompuServe, and on
- America Online.
-
-
- Q: I use both cc:Mail and a MAPI-compliant e-mail
- system at work. Can I have the VShield scanner
- examine both of these systems at once or switch
- back and forth between them?
-
- A: The VShield E-Mail Scan module includes support
- for only one e-mail client at any given time.
- You may not, for example, have the E-Mail Scan
- module scan both a MAPI-compliant mailbox and a
- Lotus cc:Mail server at the same time. You can,
- however, scan first one mailbox then switch the
- E-Mail Scan module so that it scans the other
- mailbox. You can also have VShield's E-Mail Scan
- module examine your cc:Mail mailbox in the
- background, then have VirusScan's E-Mail Scan
- on-demand component begin scanning your MAPI
- mailbox.
-
-
- Q: I am installing new software on my computer,
- and the manual recommends disabling any anti-
- virus software. How do I disable the VShield
- scanner without uninstalling it?
-
- A: If you are running the VirusScan software on
- a Windows NT Workstation v4.0 or Windows 2000
- Professional system, you must first log into
- your system with administrative rights, then
- follow the steps outlined below in order to
- disable the VShield scanner. If you are
- running the software on a Windows 95 or
- Windows 98 system, you can follow these
- steps immediately:
-
- 1. Right-click the VShield icon located in your
- system tray next to the system clock,
- point to Quick Enable, then choose System
- Scan from the shortcut menu.
-
- If System Scan does not have a check mark
- beside it in this menu, it is already
- disabled.
-
- 2. After you install your new software, you can
- reactivate the VShield scanner by right-
- clicking the VShield icon in the system
- tray, pointing to Enable, then choosing
- System Scan from the shortcut menu. If
- System Scan has a check mark next to it in
- the menu, it is already enabled.
-
-
- Q: I've activated the VirusScan software's
- heuristic scanning option, and now it identifies
- some viruses as "unknown." Why?
-
- A: The heuristic scanning feature looks for certain
- "virus-like" characteristics in the files it
- scans. When it finds a sufficient number of
- these characteristics, the program concludes
- that the file is infected. This powerful
- technique allows the program to discover
- viruses that are so new that they do not yet
- have names or identities. The program will,
- however, identify viruses by name when they
- match its list of known viruses.
-
-
- Q: When it detects an infection in files compressed
- in .CAB or ZIP-SFX format, why doesn't the
- VirusScan program clean, delete, or move the
- files?
-
- A: Because files compressed in .CAB and ZIP-SFX
- formats can include a Microsoft Authenticode
- certificate, altering the files can render them
- unusable. To avoid this possibility, the
- program does not clean, delete, or move
- infected files compressed in .CAB or ZIP-SFX
- format. McAfee recommends that you decompress
- any infected files compressed in these formats,
- then run your scan operation again to clean
- the uncompressed files.
-
-
- Q: The VirusScan software detected a virus on my
- system, but it is not one of the default
- files listed in its Program Extensions dialog
- box. Therefore, I suspect it might be a false
- detection. What can I do to verify a detected
- virus?
-
- A: If you suspect a false detection on a non-
- executable file, run SCAN.EXE, the VirusScan
- command line scanner, to verify the infection.
- If the VirusScan application detects a virus and
- SCAN.EXE does not, download the latest .DAT file
- update, then scan your system again. If the
- VirusScan application still detects a virus that
- you suspect is a false detection, please report
- the issue to Network Associates technical
- support.
-
-
- Q: How can I tell that the ScreenScan software is
- working?
-
- A: The ScreenScan program does not tell you when it
- scans your system, but its activity log will
- record all of its scanning activity.
-
-
- Q: Can I update McAfee data (.DAT) files to detect
- new viruses?
-
- A: Yes, you can use the SecureCast update utility
- by clicking the 'Update' button on the Central
- home page. This will launch the SecureCast update
- utility which will check the DAT file version that
- you are using and update them to the current version.
-
- You can also go to the following website:
-
- http://software.mcafee.com
-
- and download the latest superDAT update utility.
-
-
- Q: Why are additional extensions added to the
- Program Files Only list?
-
- A: As the McAfee Anti-Virus Emergency Response
- Team (AVERT) finds viruses that can infect
- new file types, it adds new extensions to the
- default extensions list to enhance security.
- For instance, new viruses can infect
- Microsoft Office binder files, so the default
- extensions list now includes the file extension
- for these binder files so that VirusScan will
- examine them for viruses.
-
-
- Q: I thought I could right-click Microsoft Office
- .DO?, .XL?, or .OBD files, then choose Scan for
- Viruses from a shortcut menu in order to start a
- scan operation. I have Microsoft Office
- installed, but when I try this, it doesn't work.
- Why not?
-
- A: If you installed Microsoft Office after you
- installed the VirusScan software, you might need
- to reinstall the VirusScan software to enable
- context-sensitive shortcut menus.
-
-
- Q: I'm running Microsoft Exchange Client 5.0, and
- the icons that tell me that the VirusScan
- application can run a scan operation from within
- Exchange aren't showing on my toolbar. Why?
-
- A: Because of a limitation in Microsoft Exchange
- Client v5.0, the two Exchange On-Demand scan
- icons will not appear in the Exchange toolbar.
- Consult your Exchange documentation to learn how
- to place these icons onto the toolbar.
-
-
- Q: I'm running Microsoft Office 2000, and the
- VirusScan icons that let me configure and run
- scan operations aren't showing anywhere
- in my Outlook 2000 toolbar. Are they hidden?
-
- A: By default, Microsoft Office hides icons that
- you have not used in a long time. To see the
- icons, click the arrows at the far right of the
- Outlook toolbar.
-
-
- Q: I have a .VSC settings file I used with the last
- VirusScan version I had on my system. Can I
- still use this file with this VirusScan release?
-
- A: No, this VirusScan version does not interpret
- some of the settings in earlier .VSC file
- versions in the same way, so earlier files will
- not work correctly. McAfee recommends that you
- create and save your settings in a new .VSC file
- for use with this version.
