Short: VirusZ v1.28 by Georg Hoermann
Author: Georg Hörmann
Uploader: Bert Jahn (jah@pub.th-zwickau.de)
Type: util/virus
Requires: OS V2.05 (V37+)
Replaces: util/virus/VZ_II126.* util/virus/VirusZIIdoc.* util/virus/virsz307.*
This is the latest version of the viruskiller VirusZ by Georg Hörmann.
Features:
- can be used as background program that checks memory and inserted disks
- offers a quite huge amount of user-definable settings to configure it as
you like best
- possibility to start different check mechanisms for files, sectors, vectors
and bootblocks
- can be controlled via ARexx and thus enables the user to interact with it
from programs like e.g. DirectoryOpus
- a 100% clean commodity without any system hacks
- follows the Style Guide conventions and provides you with keyboard gadget
activation
- supports Reqtools
Changes/Additions since 1.27:
- Finally fixed a problem that I already noticed some months ago,
but didn't find the bug. After inserting and removing some disks,
it may have happened that the system had a busy-loop whenever the
background checker was working. Now I found the problem that
caused all the trouble: the BEOL memory checker tried to read
from a non-existing process in not available memory areas.
- Added a big new feature: a real background checker that not only
searches for known viruses but recognizes all changes done to
any system vectors. You can configure it totally to your needs.
All checks can be enabled/disabled separately for startup and
for surveillance.
- Added new security check to the memory checker: before testing
for known viruses, the respective address is tested to be in
available memory areas. This prevents busy-loops with RAD: or
other residents located near the bounds of a memory area.
- Added MagicCX 2.39 to the vector check. Thanks to Martin Hans
for sending it.
