1.  Manual Revisions
--------------------

Page 65:- The remaining text in the Virus Encyclopedia section after the
screen example of the Virus Encyclopedia will be replaced by the
following text:

"For the virus highlighted in the "Viruses" list on the right hand side
of the dialog, the "Description" provides the following information:

* How common it is.

* How infectious it is.

* How much damage it does.

* What is infected: files, boot sectors or partition sectors.

* Whether or not it has memory-resident capabilities.

* If it uses stealth.

* If it is polymorphic.

* Any aliases it is known by, and whether there are any variants.

A virus can be highlighted in the "Viruses" list by clicking on it with
the mouse. Keyboard users can move the selection bar using the cursor
keys.

Use the "Locate" box to jump to a specific part of the "Viruses" list.
The virus is highlighted whose name starts with the string of letters
you type into the box. For the first few letters you type several
viruses will probably match; the first one in the list will be
highlighted. As you type more letters the identification will get more
specific. The "Search" option is more powerful as it can find the
specified string occurring anywhere in the virus name.

The "Search" button finds each virus whose name, or the name of any of
its aliases, contains the string of letters you enter.

Once you have run a search you can step to the next found match using
the "Next" button.

The "Print" button outputs the current description to the default
printer port."

Page 75:- The procedure for single button repair will read:

1. Tab to the Drives box.

2. Use the up and down arrow keys to highlight the drive on which you
have found a virus.

3. Press the space bar to select the drive. Select Repair.

Page 77:- The first paragraph in the section "How FindVirus Works"
will read:

FindVirus looks for known virus code within files, boot and partition
sectors. This code is stored in a driver file; it contains code for
every virus known at the time of the release. FindVirus also uses other
sophisticated methods.

Page 80:- The following text will be added:

In the report after a scan including ZIP files, it may appear the same
file is being reported twice. This is not actually the case: when
reporting the path of files within a ZIP file, directories after the ZIP
file entry are missed out. This means, for example, that

C:\ZIPFILE\INTHEZIP.XXX

and

C:\ZIPFILE\ADIR\INTHEZIP.XXX

both appear as C:\ZIPFILE\INTHEZIP.XXX in the report.

Page 82:- The explanation of the /PAUSE switch will be amended to
"Prompts for the drive letter before scanning.".

Page 83:- After the first "for example" at the top of the page another
"for example" will be added as follows:

For example:

FINDVIRU /D=A /PAUSE

or

FINDVIRU /PAUSE

first display the prompt "Please insert a disk and press the drive
letter or Esc to quit". If you are running FindVirus from the
installation diskette this lets you swap the installation diskette for
the one you want to scan, rather than waiting until after the
installation diskette has first been scanned (which would happen without
the /PAUSE switch).

Page 85:- The /REPORT=file switch paragraph will be:

/REPORT=file

Directs the report to a file as well as to the screen. When no file is
specified the report file defaults to "FINDVIRU.REP". When a file but no
path is specified the file is created in the Toolkit directory (usually
"TOOLKIT"). If you are running FindVirus from the original write
protected diskette, you must specify a file on the C: drive. The /APPEND
switch appends the report to an existing file.

Page 88:- The section "Defining Drivers" will read:

FindVirus can only detect viruses which have an entry in the driver file
FINDVIRU.DRV. A new version of FINDVIRU.DRV is generated and released
monthly, to include entries for newly discovered viruses. To cover the
period until the next release an extra driver, containing only entries
for new viruses, is occasionally made available via the S&S Bulletin
Board.

Extra drivers may be implemented in one of the following ways:

* As the file "EXTRA.DRV" in the Toolkit directory. When present this
file is used automatically and need not be specified with a switch.

* As a file with any other name, in which case you must specify it with
the FindVirus switch:

/EXTRA=file.

Note that if FindVirus cannot locate the specified file there is no
specific alert. The best way to check that the extra driver is being
used is to note the "Searching for..(number of viruses)" item in the
dialog you see on scanning. If this number increases then the extra
driver is in use.

Page 98:- The extensions "DOC" and "DOT" will be deleted from the list
of file extensions scanned by default.

Page 121:- The /X=keyword switch explanation will read:

/X=keyword

Specifies a keyword to be used when creating or checking fingerprints.
The keyword must be at least eight letter characters; do not use
accented characters as found on some non-UK keyboards.

Page 173:- Before the paragraph starting "The ADD command returns.....",
the following paragraph will be inserted:

"If you specify /AFTER and "text" is already in the file, and after
"phrase", then "text" will not be inserted. If you specify /AFTER and
"text" is already in the file, but before "phrase", then "text" will be
inserted after "phrase" (so it will occur in the file twice)."

Page 173:- The second example of using TKUTIL ADD will be deleted. This
is because it adds the AUTOEXEC.BAT text after the line containing
"login", but it should always be added before the login command.

Page 184:- The reference table entry on the /INI switch will be deleted.

Page 185:- The explanation of the /PAUSE switch will be amended to
"Prompts for the drive letter before scanning".

Page 191:- Please ignore the reference section "WKTUTIL command". This
section will be replaced by the following section on the TKUTIL command:

overwriting any section in the destination file which already existed.

It has the following syntax:

TKUTIL INIUPDATE filename1 filename2

where:

filename1 is the source file's name. filename2 is the destination file's
name.


5.  New Windows FindVirus Switch /NOEXIT
-----------------------------------------

In the reference table on FindVirus switches (currently on page 184)
there will be an additional entry:

/NOEXIT

Force Windows FindVirus to continue scanning even if the "Exit" button
is pressed.


6.  New Windows FindVirus Switch /AUTOEXIT
-------------------------------------------

In the reference table on FindVirus switches (currently on page 184)
there will be an additional entry:

/AUTOEXIT

This switch Forces FindVirus to quit without displaying a dialog if the

If no viruses are found FindVirus displays a dialog containing an "All
Clear" message and an "OK" button, which you must press to continue.

/AUTOEXIT Forces FindVirus to exit without displaying a dialog if the
scan finds no viruses.

If a virus is found you see the report dialog as normal.


7.  New DOS FindVirus Switch /NOOLE
------------------------------------

In the reference table on FindVirus switches (currently on page 184)
there will be an additional entry:

/NOOLE

This switch stops DOS FindVirus scanning inside Microsoft Word document
files and templates for macro viruses (such as "Concept").


8.  Microsoft Expand Support
-----------------------------

"Microsoft Expand" will be added to the list of supported file
compression formats which is currently on Page 79.

"Microsoft Expand" will be added to the list of compression formats
scanned when the /UNZIP switch is specified. This is currently detailed
on Page 84.

In the reference table on FindVirus switches (currently on page 185)
"Microsoft Expand" will be added to the list of formats scanned when the
/UNZIP switch is specified.


9.  New VirusGuard switch /NOSCAN
----------------------------------

Note: This switch was introduced initially as a workaround for
DECPathworks users whose network drives are marked as removable, and so
are included by /COPY=FLOPPY in the scan.

In the reference table on VirusGuard switches, currently on Page 186,
there will be an additional entry:

/NOSCAN="string"

Exclude drive letters contained in "string" from scan. Letters must be
uppercase; eight maximum.

In the "Running VirusGuard" section there will a new subsection:

Excluding Drives From Scan
--------------------------

You can exclude drives from the scan.

/NOSCAN="string" Exclude drive letters contained in "string" from scan.

For example:

GUARD /NOSCAN="CD"

stops VirusGuard scanning the C: and D: drives.


10.  New VirusGuard switch /NFC
--------------------------------

In the reference table on VirusGuard switches, currently on Page 186,
there will be an additional entry:

/NFC

Stop VirusGuard checking whether a Netware server is running FAM (File
Access Monitor), before scanning a file accessed on the server.

In the "Running VirusGuard section" there will a new subsection:

Stopping FAM check clashing with Netware and PC NFS
---------------------------------------------------

Before scanning a file accessed from a Netware server, VirusGuard checks
whether the server is running FAM (File Access Monitor). This is to
prevent wasting time in scanning a file which the FAM has already
scanned.

When the access is by PC-NFS however, the check for the FAM prevents all
access to the file.

Specifying /NFC disables the FAM check. This allows access to the files
but causes files to be scanned twice (this is not a major problem
however).


11.  Magic Bullet and Multiple Partitions
-----------------------------------------

Problems may be encountered when using Magic Bullet to scan disks with
multiple partitions. Some partitions may not be recognised, some
partition drive letters may be reported incorrectly.
