Thunderbyte Anti-Virus utilities v6.12 complete virus detection/prevention
1-UTIL APR94 THUNDERBYTE VIRUS SECURITY PREVENTION

Thunderbyte Anti-Virus package is a set of utilities for the prevention and
detection of computer virus.
Partial 6.12 Product update
General information:
-> NEW BBS NUMBER! The Thunderbyte support BBS in The Netherlands is
now a multi-line BBS, available via a new phone number:
+31 - 59 - 182 011
(Dutch Residents, dial 059 182 011).
All lines are available through just this ONE number. We will keep
on adding lines until the occupancy of the BBS remains within
acceptable limits.
TbScan:
- Modified the code tracer. Heuristic alarms now less often appear
on high-level-language programs. TbScan now performs slightly
faster. Increased the heuristic detection.
- Improved the polymorphic virus detection.
- TbScan now also detects the most common archives while scanning
non-executable files, displaying a 'p' behind the filename.
- Scanning of non-executable files is now faster.
- Increased the maximum number of sub-directories that one directory
can contain from 1024 to 1536.
- Implemented full Windows-OS/2 virus detection! If TbScan detects
that a program also has a Windows or OS/2 entry point, this
entry point will be located and scanned too. Due to the design
of Windows-OS/2 software, scanning of the Windows-OS/2 entry
point is relatively time consuming. If you don't use Windows or
OS/2 and feel that the detection of the just three Windows viruses
and one OS/2 virus is not worth the scan speed penalty of 10%, you
can switch the Windows-OS/2 scanning off with option 'nowin' (nw).
Viruses:
- We did some major maintenance on our virus collection. Many virus
names have been adapted to the CARO virus naming convention.
- Added signatures:
