Changes in McAfee VirusScan Version 2.0.1:

that was released in April, 1994. The following changes have been
made in the 2.0.1 release:

o The /NOBREAK switch has been added. This switch will
prevent a scan from being stopped by pressing the
Ctrl-C or Ctrl-Brk keys.

from 340kb to 300Kb.
o VirusScan's scanning speed has been improved by
approximately 12%.

prevent a scan from being stopped by pressing the
