6.02 Product update
-------------------
TbSetup:
- TbSetup now removes the read-only attribute before attempting
to update or delete an anti-vir.dat file.
TbScan:
- Solved a bug causing the 'Twelve Tricks Trojan' to be reported
on exe-files with an invalid entry-point. (Some non-exectuable
files look like an exe-file with invalid entry-point. Once
again: be careful with option 'allfiles'!)
TbFile:
- Closed some CP/M backdoors to DOS.
DOS allows some CP/M style calls which bypass anti-virus
software. These backdoors are a left-over of CP/M and very
rarely used by software. They can however be misused by viruses,
so TbFile disables these backdoors by default.
- Added option 'compat' to allow CP/M style calls.
TbMem:
- Added CMOS protection.
TbMem will check the CMOS (if available) after a program
terminates. If the CMOS memory has been changed, the user will
be informed and TbMem will optionally restore the CMOS contents.
- Added option 'nocmos' to disable CMOS protection.
