- 4) Version 2.04c will not display or check AV codes written by
- Version 1.10. A PKWare person ("Mark") stated the following when I
- asked about this.
- Yes, version 2.04c does not recognize the 1.1 AV files, that
- may change it may not. We will evaluate requests as they come
- in.
- I find 2.04c's inability to check and display 1.10 AV codes a serious
- defect. Apparently messages to PKWARE.Inc@mixcom.com could result in a
- fix in the next release.
