- Version 2.16 - major changes:
-
- There are no major programming changes in this version, but please note
- that the phone and fax numbers of Frisk Software International have
- changed. The old numbers will still work for a few months, though.
-
- New phone number: +354-5617273
- Fax: +354-5617274
-
- Also note that in ORDER-2.DOC several new distributors of the F-PROT
- Professional package have been added - in Argentina, Australia, Canada,
- Chile, Mexico and New Zealand.
-
- Finally, note that we have changed some E-mail addresses. The
- addresses that should be used from now on are:
-
- support@complex.is for technical support and samples of new viruses
-
- sales@complex.is for orders and related subjects
-
- frisk@complex.is for private E-mail to Fridrik Skulason
-
- We now include PGP signature files for the most critical files in the
- package. A separate PGP signature for the file FP-216.ZIP will be made
- available as well. See PGP.DOC for further information.
-
- Version 2.16 - the following problems were found and corrected:
-
- All .COM files infected with the following viruses were incorrectly
- reported as "Generation 1"
-
- Jerusalem.Pipi.1536
- KMIT
-
- The Bengal virus was only found in .COM files, not EXE.
-
- Version 2.15 missed a very small number of One_Half.3544 and
- Neuroquila-infected files. It should now detect the viruses 100%.
-
- The 2.15 version of virstop would conflict with a program named
- PC-CONFIG.
-
- Version 2.16 - the following false alarms were fixed:
-
- NUAGE!.COM reported as "Possibly a new variant of Reklama"
-
- SPEED.COM reported (by VIRSTOP) to be Phalcon-infected.
-
- Diskettes with RINGFENCE or DISKLOCK (a security product) in the boot
- sector used to be flagged by VIRSTOP as virus-infected.
-
- Version 2.16 - minor improvements and changes:
-
- Reporting of boot sector viruses has been changed slightly. F-PROT
- now reports "xxxx (?)" instead of "xxxx - unknown" when it only detects
- the virus, but has no identification information.
-
- Version 2.16 - new viruses:
-
- The following 10 viruses are now identified, but can not be removed as
- they overwrite or corrupt infected files. Some of them were detected by
- earlier versions of F-PROT, but only reported as "New or modified
- variant of..."
-
- Abraxas.1518
- Burger (542 and 560.AV)
- Cavaco (Virus damages .EXE files but .COM files can be repaired)

- Maaike.164.B
- Milan.Demon.270
- Leprosy (Skism.808.D and Skism.1992.C)

- The following 220 new viruses can now be detected and removed. Many of
- these viruses were detected by earlier versions, but are now identified
- accurately.
