Version 2.24c
Very many new viruses have appeared recently. In an effort to "catch up",
we are releasing a new version, which adds detection of over 700 new
viruses added since 2.24a was released.
We also added detection of Moloch, which was the only virus on the
"Wild list" that we did not detect. This means that as far as we know,
F-PROT now detects all the viruses that are considered a "real" problem
anywhere in the world.
Finally we corrected an error in in the memory detection of certain
viruses.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 2.24a
This version fixes a major error in F-PROT, which was discovered the day
after it was released. The error had to do with floppy disk boot sector
virus detection, where a number of boot sector viruses (some of which have
been detected since version 1.0) were suddenly not reported at all.
This one should never have slipped through our quality control, but it
somehow did - we will take the steps necessary to prevent a fiasco like
this from happening again.
We also made a few other minor changes: corrected some typos in the DOC
files, fixed a Tentacle_II false alarm, and added detection and removal of
one new Word macro virus.
We also decided to include VIRLIST.LIS in a .ZIP file, so that the primary
.ZIP file would fit on a single diskette when unpacked.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 2.24 - major changes:
If you expected to find here a big note saying that we added
detection and removal of Hare and Laroux, which have generated
considerable media attention recently, you were partially right.
We did indeed add this - However, we do not consider those viruses
to be the major threat that some other anti-virus companies and the
media claim them to be, and we consider the importance of those
viruses to have been hyped way out of proportion.
The F-MACRO.EXE program which was included with version 2.23 has
been replaced with a new program, named F-MACROW.EXE, which is a
Windows application, specifically written to detect and disinfect
Microsoft Word and Excel macro viruses. This program can detect and
disinfect over 50 macro viruses and Trojans, including the recently
reported Laroux Excel virus. Please see F-MACROW.DOC for further
information.
Version 2.24 - the following problems were found and corrected:
The disinfection of the Quandary virus from the hard disk didn't
work - F-PROT was complaining that the original MBR could not
be found. Fixed.
The DelCMOS viruses were not detected in memory. Fixed.
Version 2.24 - the following false alarms were fixed:
RD16.COM : Possibly a new variant of Chips
Version 2.24 - minor improvements and changes:
You can now ask the F-PROT mail server to send you an E-mail
notification whenever a new version of F-PROT is released - see
UPDATES.DOC for details.
Version 2.24 - new viruses:
The following 31 viruses are now identified, but can not be removed as
they overwrite or corrupt infected files. Some of them were detected by
earlier versions of F-PROT, but not identified accurately.
