- Type: util/virus
-
- SF_VBlast is a little Tool for destroying resident
- programs (including resident viruses) in memory so that
- it is virusfree before booting again.
- That`s important if you want to boot from a virusfree
- BootDevice/Disk being sure that no virus is active after boot
- and you want to be sure that no virus will survive the
- next reset to infect files etc. . If, for example, ShellCommands
- of the C-Directory of the BootDrive are already infected which
- are started during the boot process, SF_VBlast doesn`t help, there-
- fore always boot from a clean Drive/Disk after.
- (for example if you want to use virusscanners, analyse prgs and
- you want to be sure that those programs (and you) are not cheated
- by active viruses).
- SF_VBlast should be executed if new programs were started from
- which you don`t know if they could contain a virus that possibly
- survives a reset.
-
- Additionally a SF_VBlast BootBlock can be installed on
- Disks.
- Default Drive is DF0, if you want to install to other
- Drives in one step you have to change the ToolTypesItem
- of Install_SFVBlast_Boot by adding the Drives you want
- to DF0 (choose Information from WB-Menue for this Program),
- example :
-
- the ToolTypeText "Install_SFVBlast_BB r DF0 GWD_SFVBlast_BootBlock"
- can be changed as
- follows (the "r"-option should NOT be changed or deleted):
-
- "Install_SFVBlast_BB r DF0,DF1,DF2 GWD_SFVBlast_BootBlock"
-
- After that the BootBlock is installed on DF0, DF1 and DF2 when starting
- Install_SFVBlast_Boot.
-
- Important : On some computers it happens, that after executing SF_VBlast,
- also with BootBlock, that it will not be booted automatically
- (I think on AMIGAs with Turboboards etc.), then please perform
- a normal reset with keyboard AFTER coldreset with SF_VBlast.
- I do not know the reason, either a little bug in the OS or a
- side effect of SF_VBlast, in spite of that SF_VBlast does what
- it shell do.
