Virus Help Denmark: VirusZ v0.9e
Georg Hörmann has released version 0.9e of the anti virus software
VirusZ that can be downloaded from the website of the Virus Help Team Denmark.
Information about the new update:
Name: VirusZ v0.9e
Archive name: VirusZ.lha
Archiv size: 94,117 bytes
Release date: June, 7th 2003
Programmer: Georg Hoermann
TODOs until the final release 1.00:
- Implement file and sector scanning inside ALL types of disk- and
filearchives that xadmaster.library supports.
- Add useful commands to ARexx port.
Changes since version 0.9d:
- Added new snapshots sent by Klaus-Peter Simon, Chris Elliott,
DMX, Dario, Mikolaj Calusinski and Todd A. Oberly. Thanks guys!
- Fixed CacheClearU() calls in the new self-test added in 0.9d to
CacheClearE() for better performance on JIT 68k emulated systems.
Thanks to Harry Sintonen for the report.
- Added new switch to 'Misc Prefs' to dis/enable the usage of the
disassembler.library for bootblock lab and memory monitor. This
library always opens mmu.library too which seems to be annoying
for some users. Idea by Mikolaj Calusinski, thanks.
- Fixed problem with OxyPatcher: It modified code inside VirusZ and
thus caused alerts by its self-test. Thanks to DMX for the report.
- Did some compatibility fixes for Pegasos systems. VirusZ will work
perfectly with a faked ROM now. Thanks again to Harry Sintonen for the
report and for beta-testing.
- Fixed severe bug in the filecheck: hardlinks haven't been handled
correctly and may have lead to crashes. Now any hardlinks will be
fully tested (respectively the files/dirs they point at). Due to
the inconsistent implementation of hardlinks to the filesystem,
there nevertheless may appear some side-effects when you chose to
delete/disinfect such files. Hardlinks then might be replaced by
invalidated copies of the files they originally pointed at. This
method at least avoids any virus execution and is the best I can
offer. Thanks to Mikolaj Calusinski for the initial bug report,
for beta-testing and further suggestions on this topic.
- Added great installer script written by Dave 'Targhan' Crawford.
Thanks a lot for this contribution.
