- Installation
-
- Installation of F-PROT involves copying all the files which make up the
- package to a separate directory on the hard disk or on a network server.
- One line is then added to AUTOEXEC.BAT or CONFIG.SYS to load the
- VIRSTOP.EXE program.
-
- Earlier versions of F-PROT offered semi-automatic installation, but it was
- very limited - only allowed loading VIRSTOP from AUTOEXEC, and did not
- work on networked machines.
-
- We came to the conclusion that the installation should be handled with a
- deteicated "INSTALL" program - such a program now exists for the
- Professional version, but a similar program for the shareware version is
- under development.
-
- VIRSTOP.EXE
-
- The recommended way to load VIRSTOP is to place a command like the
- following in the CONFIG.SYS file.
-
- DEVICE=C:\F-PROT\VIRSTOP.EXE
-
- or, if you are using DOS 5, you may use:
-
- DEVICEHIGH=C:\F-PROT\VIRSTOP.EXE
-
- However, if you are using certain types of network software, such as PC-NFS
- or Novell Netware, you MUST load the program from AUTOEXEC.BAT, after the
- network software is loaded. This problem will be solved in the near
- future.
