  30. 6.01 Product update
  31. -------------------
  32.  
  33. TbGenSig:
  34.     -   Changed the code to avoid a heuristic alarm by TbScan.
  35.  
  36.  
  37. TbScanX:
  38.     -   Solved a bug causing the EMS option to hang TbScanX on
  39.         some machines.
  40.  
  41.  
  42. TbMem:
  43.     -   TbMem now detects when Windows is starting in standard mode.
  44.         Due to the task swapping in Windows standard mode, interrupts
  45.         can not be checked reliable, so TbMem switches itself off when
  46.         Windows is started in standard mode. Upon termination of
  47.         Windows, TbMem enables itself again. In 386-enhanced-mode TbMem
  48.         doesn't need to disable itself.

  55.                         collection and CARO's.
  56.         2730            Removed the '2730' signature as it causes false
  57.                         alarms.  This was a signature from the
