NEW FEATURES 

1.  VirusScan includes an exciting new interface that puts
    its scanning power and comprehensive protection within
    easy reach. Highlights include:

    - VirusScan Central gives you one-click access
      to VirusScan's individual program components, and
      includes a new message pane that offers scanning tips,
      troubleshooting information, and guidance for updating
      your data files and program files.

    - A VirusScan Tools button palette gives you access
      to the emergency disk creation utility and the Virus
      List, and introduces a new feature that allows
      you to easily send suspicious files to McAfee Anti-
      Virus Emergency Response Team (AVERT) Labs for analysis.
    
    - A new VShield Properties dialog box groups the 
      configuration options for VShield's long-standing
      System Scan module with those for its new e-mail,
      internet, and download scanning modules. For even
      quicker and easier setup, VShield includes a
      configuration wizard that enables the most common
      scanning options for an excellent balance between
      system performance and virus protection. Now you can
      set up VShield in one quick pass and get complete
      protection from viruses and malicious software at all
      potential points of entry.

    - VirusScan's new on-demand e-mail scanning component
      integrates seamlessly and unobtrusively with the
      MAPI-compliant e-mail application software Microsoft
      Exchange and Microsoft Outlook.

    - VirusScan program components have new design elements
      aimed at making VirusScan more efficient and easier to
      use than ever.

2.  VirusScan now incorporates technology to protect you as
    you venture out into the Internet.

    VShield's E-mail Scan module looks for viruses in e-mail
    attachments you receive via your in-house corporate
    e-mail system while VShield's Download Scan module checks
    e-mail received through popular Internet mail applications.
    
    Download Scan also examines other files you choose to
    download, while the Internet Filter module detects
    hostile Java applets and ActiveX controls. You can also
    configure Internet Filter to block access to specific
    undesirable sites. With this broad focus, VirusScan seals
    all points of entry for viruses and other malicious software.

3.  New versions of standby VirusScan Command Line components
    give VirusScan for Windows 95 and Windows 98 powerful
    and up-to-date backup protection with the highest detection
    and cleaning rates in the industry.

4.  Specialized scanners help to protect your MAPI-based and
    cc:Mail corporate e-mail systems against virus threats. Use
    VShield to scan for viruses continuously, in the background,
    or use VirusScan's new on-demand scanner for Microsoft
    Exchange and Outlook mailboxes to scan at your request.

5.  Integrated SecureCast installation ensures that you have
    quick and seamless updating for VirusScan data files and
    new program components. VirusScan reminds you when to update
    your files--a single click delivers them to your desktop
    for installation.

6.  Use VirusScan's new direct connection to McAfee Anti-Virus
    Emergency Response Team (AVERT) Labs to report potentially
    new virus strains or malicious objects.

7.  VirusScan's Macro Heuristics scanning evaluates the
    probability that a macro in a Microsoft Office application
    may be a malicious virus. You can set the level of detection,
    even to the extremely cautious step of configuring Macro
    Heuristics to remove ALL macros from a possibly infected
    file. (Warning: this could remove wanted as well as
    malicious macros.)

8.  A revamped VShield Security module allows you to protect
    individual property pages for any VShield module against
    unauthorized changes. Use it to keep others who use your
    computer from making changes, or configure VShield with
    those settings you want all users on your network to
    have, then distribute password-protected settings files
    to enforce a network-wide anti-virus security policy. 
    
9.  The scan engine included with VirusScan features improved
    cleaning for Microsoft Excel files infected with the
    Laroux virus. This version also protects your system
    against the dangerous CIH and Marburg viruses, which
    infect Windows portable executable (PE) files. A portable
    executable file is a Windows resource file that other
    executable files can share--examples include dynamic
    linking library (.DLL) files.

10. This VirusScan version also includes improved detection
    and cleaning capability for the TEOCATL virus and for a
    new strain of the XF/PAIX virus.

11. VirusScan now detects macro viruses that infect Microsoft
    Access database files.

12. VirusScan and VShield fully support floppy disk scanning
    on LS-120 drives.

13. VirusScan and VShield both send Desktop Management
    Interface (DMI) alerts to desktop or network management
    applications that support the DMI standard. This 
    capability supplements each program's existing alert
    options.

14. VirusScan scans files compressed in most of the popular
    file formats available on the PC platform. When it
    detects an infection in a file compressed in the ZIP, 
    LHA, or UUencode format, VirusScan can clean, delete,
    or move the file. VirusScan cannot clean, delete, or
    move an infected file compressed in .CAB or in ZIP-SFX
    format, which might include an Authenticode
    certification. Network Associates recommends that you
    first decompress files encoded in either of these formats
    before running a VirusScan clean operation on them.

15. VirusScan scans files embedded within Microsoft Office
    files, including Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel
    files.

16. VirusScan can detect macro virus infections in
    password-protected Microsoft Word 95 files in all
    languages that Word supports.

17. If a macro virus plants its own password in a
    password-protected Word 97 file, VirusScan cleans
    the file and removes the password that the virus
    planted. If, on the other hand, the macro virus
    cannot plant its own password, VirusScan cleans the
    password-protected Word 97 file without disturbing
    its user-assigned password.

18. VirusScan checks the .DAT file version in use for
    compatibility with its newer scan engines. It will
    prompt you to update incompatible .DAT files.

KNOWN ISSUES



1.  Using MS-DOS memory managers might cause VirusScan to
    falsely detect viruses in memory. Since Windows 95/98 no
    longer requires MS-DOS memory managers, you can
    eliminate false warnings by preceding each line in your
    CONFIG.SYS file that includes settings for an MS-DOS
    memory manager with REM. This deactivates the memory
    manager. To learn more about working with your
    CONFIG.SYS file, see your MS-DOS or Windows
    documentation.

2.  To create a VirusScan Emergency Disk, you must first
    create a bootable floppy disk using the following
    command at a DOS prompt:

    c:\>FORMAT A: /S/U

3.  If you use a password to protect VShield or any scan
    task you have scheduled, VirusScan will ask you for
    that password whenever you start any program you have
    not excluded from scanning. Use your mouse to click
    inside the text box provided in order to enter the
    password--keyboard shortcuts will not work. Microsoft
    acknowledges this issue in its Knowledge Base Article
    ID #Q84133. Next, click OK to use the password you
    enter. To close the password verification dialog box
    without entering a password, click Cancel.

4.  ScreenScan will stop scanning after it detects a virus
    and will prompt you to launch VirusScan. If you have
    additional viruses on your system, ScreenScan will not
    notify you until it next runs. Network Associates
    recommends that you scan and clean your entire system
    with VirusScan whenever ScreenScan detects a virus.

5.  Disk defragmentation programs move files as they work
    to maximize hard disk efficiency. If you have VShield,
    VirusScan, or other applications active during a disk
    defragmentation operation, your disk defragmentation
    program might tell you that it cannot find the active
    application files. This is normal and does not mean
    that the files do not exist. To avoid error messages
    like this, close all open applications and disable
    VShield, then run your disk defragmentation operation
    again. 

6.  If you unzip a virus-infected file into a directory
    on a Novell server, VShield does not detect the
    infection as the file is created. For maximum security,
    use VirusScan to scan the Novell server after you have
    extracted the files to the server.

7.  If you press CTRL+ALT+DEL to shut down a Windows 95
    system with VShield or any other VxD enabled, Windows
    does not shut down. Instead, Windows disables VShield
    or the active VxD. To shut down your computer, you must
    press CTRL+ALT+DEL again.



____________
INSTALLATION         

* INSTALLING VIRUSSCAN *

1.  Insert the floppy disk or compact disc with your copy
    of VirusScan into your floppy disk drive or CD-ROM
    drive.

    If you downloaded a compressed copy of VirusScan
    from the Network Associates website or other electronic
    service, create a temporary directory on your hard disk
    or on a disk available on your network, then extract
    the files you downloaded into that directory.

2.  Click Start in the Windows taskbar, then choose Run.

3.  Type x:\setup.exe in the Run dialog box to start the
    installation utility from a floppy disk. To start the
    utility from a CD-ROM, type x:\win95\setup.exe. In both
    cases, x is the drive letter that designates your
    floppy drive or your CD-ROM drive.

    If you extracted files that you downloaded to your
    hard disk or to a disk on your network, specify the
    path to the correct directory. For example, type
    C:\DOWNLOAD\SETUP.EXE.

4.  Click OK to continue.

    The VirusScan installation wizard will start. Follow
    the instructions shown on each wizard pane to choose
    the VirusScan options you want.

5.  When you finish your installation, restart your
    computer.


* PERFORMING A SILENT INSTALLATION *

To install copies of VirusScan with a uniform configuration
on client computers on your network, run SETUP.EXE with the
-s option -- that is, type SETUP.EXE -s in the Run dialog
box. This tells VirusScan to install itself with little or
no interaction with end users. If you do not customize
this installation, VirusScan installs itself with all of 
the default or "typical" installation settings activated.

Network administrators can customize the silent installation
feature by following these steps: 

1.  Check the Windows directory to ensure that a file named
    SETUP.ISS does not already exist. If one does, rename
    it, back it up, or delete it.

2.  Run SETUP.EXE with the -r option, (i.e., SETUP.EXE -r)
    to install it to your computer or to a chosen server
    on your network.

3.  Select the components and choose the settings you want
    each of your client computers to have. The VirusScan
    installation utility will record your choices.

    Note: If VirusScan detects a virus as it records your
    choices, both the recording operation and the
    installation will abort.

    Result: The VirusScan installation utility creates a
    SETUP.ISS file in the Windows directory. This file
    lists the options you chose during your installation.

4.  Finish the installation. If you have chosen all of
    your options correctly, move to Step 5. To change
    any of the options you chose, see the following
    notes.

    The .ISS file specifies an installation directory
    in the szDir parameter listed beneath the
    [SdSetupType-0] header. The installation directory
    you specify here overrides the default installation
    directory on each client machine, which might vary
    on machines that run different operating systems.
    Having the same directory name on every client helps
    to ease administration; for example, you might assign
    all client machines the directory C:\ANTIVIRUS.

    If, however, you want to allow SETUP.EXE to determine
    where to locate the installed files, follow these steps
    to modify the SETUP.ISS file so that the target machine
    will disregard the szDir parameter: 

    A.  Locate the section [SdSetupType-0] in the SETUP.ISS
        file and go to the line:  Result = xxx.
        The actual value will most likely be 301, 302,
        or 303, depending on which options you selected
        when you recorded your installation.  

    B.  Add 100 to this number so that, for example, 301  
        becomes 401. This tells each target machine to 
        disregard the szDir and assign a directory according 
        to its own particular operating system. 

5.  Copy the installation files onto a local or a mapped
    network drive, then rename, back up, or delete the
    SETUP.ISS file stored in that directory. You'll use
    the new SETUP.ISS file you just created instead.

    Note: You cannot perform a silent installation from
    files that span more than one floppy disk or other
    storage medium because the installation utility will
    prompt the end user on each client computer for the
    next disk.

6.  Copy the new SETUP.ISS from the Windows directory to
    the directory that contains the installation files. 

    Note: The SETUP.ISS file is unique for each VirusScan
    product. You cannot, for example, use a SETUP.ISS file
    created during a VirusScan for Windows 95 installation
    to control a VirusScan for Windows NT installation.

7.  Run SETUP.EXE with the -s option--that is, type
    SETUP.EXE -s in the Run dialog box.

    Note: If you do not specify a "recorded" answer for
    all dialog boxes during the initial installation, the
    silent installation will fail.  

8.  When the silent installation is complete, the computer 
    reboots automatically if you did so during your
    recorded installation. The default SETUP.ISS script
    reboots the target computer automatically.


* PRIMARY PROGRAM FILES FOR VIRUSSCAN *

Note: The specific files you see on your computer will
depend on the type of license you purchased. Your 
VirusScan copy might not include some of these files.

* TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION *

The Eicar Standard AntiVirus Test File is a combined
effort by anti-virus vendors throughout the world to
implement one standard by which customers can verify
their anti-virus installations.

To test your installation, copy the following line
into its own file, then save the file with the name
EICAR.COM.

X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

The file size will be 69 or 70 bytes.

Next, start VirusScan and allow it to scan the
directory that contains EICAR.COM. When VirusScan
scans this file, it will report finding the
EICAR-STANDARD-AV-TEST-FILE virus.

Note that this file is NOT A VIRUS. Delete the file
when you have finished testing your installation to
avoid alarming unsuspecting users.

__________________________
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

Regularly updated lists of frequently asked questions 
about Network Associates products also are available on
the Network Associates website, and on CompuServe
and America Online.


Q:  I am installing new software on my computer, and the
    manual recommends disabling any anti-virus software.
    How do I disable VShield without uninstalling it?

A:  Right-click the VShield icon located in your system
    tray next to the system clock, point to Enable, then
    choose System Scan from the shortcut menu. If System
    Scan does not have a checkmark beside it in this menu,
    it is already disabled. After you install your new
    software, reactivate VShield by right-clicking the
    VShield icon in the system tray, pointing to Enable,
    then choosing System Scan from the shortcut menu. If
    System Scan has a checkmark next to it in the menu,
    it is enabled. 


Q:  When VirusScan detects an infection in files compressed
    in .CAB or ZIP-SFX format, why doesn't VirusScan clean,
    delete, or move the files?

A:  Because files compressed in .CAB and ZIP-SFX formats can
    include a Microsoft Authenticode certificate, altering the
    files can render them unusable. To avoid this possibility,
    VirusScan does not clean, delete, or move infected files
    compressed in .CAB or ZIP-SFX format. Network Associates
    recommends that you decompress any infected files
    compressed in these formats, then run VirusScan again to
    clean the uncompressed files.


Q:  When my screen saver starts, I suddenly see a lot 
    of activity on my hard disk. What's happening? How do
    I stop this activity?

A:  VirusScan includes a component called ScreenScan that
    scans for viruses on your hard disk during periods 
    when your computer is idle. In order to use ScreenScan,
    you must install it separately as part of a custom
    installation. Then, during idle periods, ScreenScan
    starts the screen saver you chose in your Windows
    preferences property page and begins scanning for
    viruses.
 
    You can disable ScreenScan by following these steps:

    1.  Move your cursor to the Windows 95/98 desktop, then
        click your right mouse button.

    2.  Choose Properties from the shortcut menu that 
        appears.

    3.  Click the ScreenScan tab in the Display Properties
        dialog box.

    4.  Clear the Enable Scanning While in Screen Saver Mode
        check box.

    5.  Click OK to close the Display Properties dialog box.


Q:  VirusScan detected a virus on my system, but it is not
    one of the default files listed in its Program
    Extensions dialog box. Therefore, I suspect it might be
    a false detection. What can I do to verify a detected
    virus?

A:  If you suspect a false detection on a non-executable 
    file, run VirusScan's command line scanner, SCAN.EXE, 
    to verify the infection. If VirusScan detects a virus
    and SCAN.EXE does not, download the latest .DAT files
    to update your virus definition files, then scan your
    system again. If VirusScan still detects a virus that
    you suspect is a false detection, please report the
    issue to Network Associates technical support.


Q:  I would like to purchase and download the latest
    version of VirusScan from one of the Network Associates
    electronic services, but I do not want to give my 
    credit card information over the Internet for
    security purposes. Can I purchase VirusScan via modem
    and download the product via the Internet?

A:  Yes. The first time you download VirusScan, the Network
    Associates SecureCast wizard will prompt you to select
    the transmission method you prefer to use to download
    your Network Associates product. It will also prompt
    you to transmit your encrypted credit card information.

    At the Transaction Connection Type dialog box, select
    Internet to download your order via the Internet.
    At the Security Connection Type dialog box, select
    Direct Dial Modem to transmit your credit card
    information via modem.


Q:  I have created my own Emergency diskette without using
    the Emergency Disk creation utility. How must I optimize
    my emergency disk's performance?

A:  To enable your own Emergency Disk, you must create a
    CONFIG.SYS file on the boot diskette, then add these
    lines:

       DEVICE=HIMEM.SYS
       DOS=HIGH
    
    Add the HIMEM.SYS file from the DOS directory or, if you
    are using Windows 95 system files, add HIMEM.SYS from
    the \WINDOWS\COMMAND directory to the boot diskette.

    Note: For detailed instructions on creating an Emergency
    diskette, refer to the instructions outlined in the
    electronic documentation (.PDF file) included in your
    VirusScan package.


Q:  I moved a .VSC file to my Startup folder. Whenever I
    turn on my computer, VirusScan starts, but does not
    begin scanning. How can I make VirusScan start scanning
    automatically?

A:  You need to customize your options. Follow these
    steps:

    1.  Location the .VSC file you saved.

    2.  Right-click the .VSC file, then choose Properties
        from the shortcut menu that appears.
  
    3.  Click the Detection tab.
 
    5.  Select the Start Automatically check box.

    6.  Click OK to close the properties dialog box.


Q:  When VirusScan starts, how does it determine its
    default settings?

A:  VirusScan reads its default settings from the
    DEFAULT.VSC file located in the installation directory.


Q:  What error codes can CHKVXD.EXE return?

A:  Possible CHKVXD.EXE error level codes, along with their
    descriptions, are:

    65535(-1)= VShield not installed

    0 = VShield enabled

    1 = VShield disabled 


Q:  How can I tell that ScreenScan is working?

A:  ScreenScan does not tell you when it scans your system,
    but if you enable the logging option when you configure
    it, VirusScan will record all ScreenScan activity in its
    log file. 


Q:  How can I use VirusScan to scan more than one drive at a
    time or to scan network drives?

A:  You can configure VirusScan to scan more than one drive
    or drives elsewhere on your network from the Detection
    dialog box. To open the dialog box, start VirusScan, then
    choose Advanced from the Tools menu. Next, follow these
    steps:

    1.  Click the Detection tab.

    2.  Click Add.

    3.  To add all network drives to the Detection list,
        click Select Item to Scan, then select All
        Network Drives. To add local drives to the
        Detection list, click Select Drive or Folder to Scan,
        then enter a drive letter or  click Browse to locate
        the drive you want to scan.

    4.  Click OK. 

    5.  Choose Save Settings from the File menu to save your
        settings.
 
    
Q:  Can I update Network Associates data files to detect new
    viruses?

A:  Yes. If your data files are out-of-date, VirusScan will
    periodically prompt you to update them. If you have a
    modem or Internet connection, you can use VirusScan's
    new electronic update feature for easy data file
    updates, technical support, and registration. 
    
    If you need additional assistance with downloading, 
    contact Network Associates Download Support. Contact
    information appears later in this file.


Q:  An error occurs when VirusScan has completed 95 percent
    of its installation. Why does this occur on my system, but
    not on others?

A:  Using a non-standard Windows 95 WinSock will cause the
    Setup to fail on some systems at the 95 percent completed
    point. To prevent this, use the default Windows 95 WinSock.


Q:  I removed the Recycle Bin from the VirusScan exclusions
    list. How can I replace it?

A:  Because the Recycle Bin is a system folder, it cannot be
    added to the exclusions list using VirusScan's browse
    feature. To restore it to the list, enter the Recycle
    Bin's full path in the exclusions list:

    \Recycled\


Q:  Why are additional extensions added to the Program Files
    Only list?

A:  As the Network Associates Anti-Virus Emergency Response
    Team finds viruses that can infect new file types, it
    adds new extensions to the default extensions list to
    enhance security. For instance, new viruses can infect
    Microsoft Office binder files, so the default extensions
    list now includes the file extension for these binder
    files so that VirusScan will examine them for viruses.


Q:  I have Microsoft Office installed, but cannot use the
    right-click context menu to start a scan operation. Why?

A:  If you installed Microsoft Office after you installed
    VirusScan, you might need to reinstall VirusScan in order
    to be able to right-click DO?, XL, and OBD files and have
    VirusScan examine them for viruses.


Q:  I am having trouble installing Service Pack 2 for Microsoft
    Exchange Client 5.0. Why?

A:  VShield uses files which the upgrade needs to write to.
    In order to successfully install the service pack,
    you must first close VShield by right-clicking the VShield
    icon the Windows tasktray, then selecting Exit. You will
    now be able to successfully run the service pack upgrade.


Q:  I'm running Microsoft Exchange Client 5.0, and VirusScan's
    On-Demand scan icons aren't showing on my taskbar. Why?

A:  If you're using Microsoft Exchange Client 5.0, the two
    Exchange On-Demand scan icons will not appear on the
    Windows taskbar. This is due to a limitation of Exchange.
    Please refer to your Exchange documentation for instructions
    on how to place these icons onto the taskbar within Exchange.
