The reason this version is called 2.09f instead of 2.10 is that some major
changes were planned for 2.10, but that version is behind schedule. In
order to keep F-PROT users up-to-date with respect to virus detection, we
released this version.
Version 2.09f - the following problems were found and corrected:
When running under OS/2 2.1, version 2.09 and earlier did not recognize
HPFS file systems, and just reported "Error reading C:", unless boot
sector scanning was disabled, which unfortunately meant that the
MBR was not scanned either.
2.09 was unable to disinfect certain boot sector viruses, such as
Stoned.NoInt from hard disks, and would simply report "Original MBR
not found".
False "Ultimatum" positives were fixed.
Version 2.09f - minor improvements and changes:
The /TROJAN and /NOTROJAN switches have been eliminated, as searching
for Trojans does not require any significant extra processing, as it
used to. F-PROT will now always search for the Trojans it recognizes
and report them if found.
F-PROT now reports which program have been modified by adding the
Central Point/Turbo Anti-Virus self-check code. We do not recommend
adding external integrity checking code to programs, as many programs
perform their own interlnal self-intecrity check, and will consider the
added code a virus infection.
Version 2.09f - new viruses:
The following 21 viruses are now identified, but can not be removed as
they overwrite or destroy infected files. Some of them were detected by
earlier versions of F-PROT, but only reported as "New or modified
variant of..."
