- 6.50 Product update
- -------------------
-
- General notes:
- - Phonenumbers have been changed in all of the Netherlands!
- Please consult the documentation or register program for the
- new numbers.
-
- - NEW EMAIL ADDRESS!!!
- In order to provide you better service we have a dedicated
- support E-Mail address. Instead of using the address of the main
- developers of TBAV or TBAV-for-Windows you should use the
- support site address. The new address is
- <tbavtech@worldaccess.nl>.
-
- - We have a WWW-server up and running! Besides the 24 hours a day
- support via CompuServe, we have set up a WWW server to provide
- you better service. You can contact ThunderBYTE via the World
- Wide Web at <http://www.thunderbyte.com>.
-
- Older news:
- - The printed manual has been completely rewritten. It covers
- TBAV-for-Dos, TBAV-for-Windows and TBAV-for-Networks. If you are
- using the old printed manual, we advise you to contact your
- local distributor to get a updated manual.
-
- - The electronic manual provided with TBAV-for-Dos has been
- revised. Those of you who once printed the "TBAV.DOC" file,
- are advised to print out this new electronic manual. Please note
- that this electronic manual only covers TBAV-for-Dos. The
- manuals for TBAV-for-Windows and TBAV-for-Networks are formed
- by the Windows-based .HLP-files for these products.
-
- - ThunderBYTE Anti-Virus is supported electronically 24 hours
- a day via CompuServe. You can contact us via the ThunderBYTE
- Forum (GO TBYTE), WUGNET/WINUTIL Forum (GO WINUTIL) and via the
- Windows News Forum (GO WINNEWS).
-
- - TBAV-for-Dos comes with a file containing answers to some
- Frequently Asked Questions. This file, called TBAV.FAQ, can be
- viewed via the TBAV-for-Windows and TBAV-for-DOS 'Documentation'
- menu.
-
-
- TbScan:
- - The heuristic engine has been redesigned! Detection rate has been
- improved, while the false positive rate has been significantly
- reduced. Without option 'heuristics' TbScan now detects about
- 80% of the viruses! If you specify option 'heuristics' (the so
- called 'paranoia mode'), TbScan now detects about 95% of the
- viruses! The default heuristic level should never produce 'false
- positives' anymore, and the amount of 'false positives' in the
- paranoia mode has been reduced to 20% of what it used to be.
-
- - To ease testing of the new heuristic engine, we added a new
- option 'hrtest' that causes TbScan to disable signature scanning.
