6.08 Product update
-------------------
TbDriver:
- Minor modification to avoid sharing violations.
TbScan:
- TbScan now warns you if the signature file is older than 6 months.
You can disable this by using command line option 'old'.
- TbScan now attempts to read the whole signature file in XMS memory.
This improves performance when TbScan needs to consult the signature
file frequently (like when scanning a virus collection), and it
enables you to scan a diskette when TbScan itself is executed from
a diskette. Previously, TbScan was not able to display the
name of the virus when the diskette with the signature info was
removed. (Option 'compat' disables the use of XMS memory).
Viruses:
- Added algorithmic detection routines:
DAME (Dark Angel's Multiple Encryptor)
(Also detects the Trigger virus)
