Update report of TbRescue.
1.9
---
Only a few people discovered our -immunize option (create anti-virus
partition table). Try it! It is the most important feature of TbRescue!
Removed the attempt to identify the machine by checking the BIOS
contents. This did not work very well on machines with UMB's in the
BIOS area.
To check the owner of the TbRescue data file we added the possibility
to add a user configurable machine comment into the data file.
This should prevent the user to restore a machine with a data file
that belongs to another PC.
TbRescue now checks the data file for the correct format and TbRescue
version number.
TbRescue is now able to reconstruct a destroyed partition table even
without rescue data file! However, creation of a rescue data file
and the anti-virus partition code is still recommended.
The TbRescue file now consumes less disk space.
1.8
---
Released directly after 1.7, which still carried a bug in the command
line parser.
1.7
---
Solved an error in the command line parser, which searched for option
-save instead of -store.
1.6
---
Modified the program to get a better cooperation with the Thunderbyte
hardware PC immunizer.
If TbRescue thinks that the data file does not belong to the current PC
the user can now force TbRescue to continue. This can be necessary if
the PC has a ROM remapper installed.
1.5
---
Enhanced the anti-virus partition code. The partition code will now also
check that Int 13h points to ROM code. If it points to RAM, it is likely
that a resident virus is active, and the partition code will warn you
for this.
1.4
---
TbRescue has been converted to an .EXE file! Remove all your TbRescue.Com
files, because if DOS finds them it will execute the .COM file instead of
the .EXE file!
Added the -I (immunize) option. If you specify this option TbRescue will
convert the partition table to a table with some virus resistance built
in. This option can also be used to clean an infected partition table
without using a rescue data file.
TbRescue now also backups and restores the CMOS data area.
1.3
---
Added an option to immunize the partition table. This version was only
developed to solve someone's virus problem, and has never been released
into the public.
1.2
---
Previous versions of TbRescue had some problems reading the disk
information on some systems. Solved.
1.1
---
TbRescue 1.0 created .Dat files with the read-only attribute set. Now
you have to set the read-only attribute yourself if you want to write
protect TbRescue.Dat.
1.0
---
Initial release of TbRescue.
