-- Zip Scan! 2.5 For Windows --
Zip Scan! 2.5 For Windows is a full featured program that does
just what the name says. Scans your zip files. You can put this in Procomm
Plus For Windows by pressing Alt-M and assigning it to a meta key, and then
run it when you download something. I wrote this program after having to
create a directory, unzip the file I downloaded and then scan it. Plus, using
windows has spoiled me, I hate long command lines. Zip Scan! 2.5 does it all
for you.
Revision History:
Version 1.0 - Beta release, not too good.
Version 2.0 - Better, Released only to Exec-PC and a few select BBS's.
Revisions:
Added a menu bar with the option to scan a directory.
Added create a directory to the menu bar.
Version 2.5 - This one! Full Release.
Revisions:
Took out the menu bar.
Redesigned the menu completely from scratch.
added Threed.vbx. A custom Control.
With Treed.vbx, I created the buttons with text effects and icons.
Made a really easy to use interface.
Scratched the help file. I'm not too good at writing them. Anyone
know how to write them? I'll give you free registration for life
if they write it correctly and compile it with the source for me.
How to Install:
Place THREED.VBX in your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.
Place PKUNZIP.PIF and SCAN.PIF in your path. anywhere. also, pkunzip
and scan also needs to be in your path for this program to work
correctly.
Place VBRUN300.DLL in your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory if it is not
there already.
Usage:
Pick the directory you have your zip files in, and click on a file
name. When you do that, it will show that to you in one of the text
boxes. then click the START UNZIP button. Then the program will
create a directory on your C: drive called C:\$$$ which it will
unzip all the files from your zip.
Then, press the START SCAN button. The program will scan the C:\$$$
directory for viruses. After it is done, you have to close the scan
window by clicking the [-] button on the top left of the window after
the title of the window says "Inactive Scanning of Viruses.".
To create a directory within the current directory on the screen,
click the CREATE DIRECTORY button. then type just the name of the
directory you wish to create up to 8 characters.
To scan a certain directory, click the SCAN DIRECTORY button. that
will scan the current directory. Remember you have to close the Scan
window after it's done. That's it!
The about button will show you how to register and stuff.
Well, I hope you find this program useful. If you do, please send
in $20 in the form of a check or money order to:
