- Version 2.20 - major changes:
-
- F-PROT will now scan .DO? (typically .DOC and .DOT) files by default.
- This is done because of the Microsoft Word Macro-based viruses that
- appeared recently. This behavior can be disabled with the /NODOC
- command-line switch.
-
- The instructions for uploading viruses to us have now been changed. A
- different PGP key is now included with the package, so that instead of
- the key belonging to Fridrik Skulason, the key that should be used belongs
- to Frisk Software International. See NEW-VIR.DOC for up-to-date
- information on how to send us virus samples.
-
- The "E-mail update service" address has changed - see UPDATES.DOC.
-
- Version 2.20 - the following false alarms were fixed:
-
- DLL.COM : Possibly a variant of Australian_Parasite
- LXDSPS.COM : Possibly a dropper program for a new variant of Stoned
- PCUNPACK.EXE : MtE
- WSASRV.EXE : MtE
-
- Version 2.20 - new viruses:

- they overwrite or corrupt infected files. Some of them were detected by
