- New Features for VirusScan 2.2.11
-
- VirusScan now includes a macro virus remover!
-
- To use the new virus removal capability, just enter the VirusScan clean
- command as usual (for example, enter SCAN /CLEAN at the DOS prompt).
-
- Notes:
-
- Version 2.2.11 is the released version of the beta previously bearing
- the number 2.3.0.
-
- The next DAT update is scheduled for May with another in July.
- Intermediate "emergency" updates will be available only through the BBS.
-
- ______________
- Known Problems
-
- When a macro virus is detected in conjuction with other viruses, the
- macro virus remover will not work. We are still working on this. If
- you encounter this, you can remove the other virus first or work in
- a separate area.
