OT: Scanner for declude HelpScott has answered thoroughly, but I would add: >> If anyone out there has bought a DOS verison from >>f-secure.com, or commandcom.com, how do you get >>it to automatically update? There is no need to get the f-secure or commandcom versions. From a Declude perspective, they don't offer any advantages. All you need is the $20 DOS version from f-prot's home site www.complex.is. You can get the $40 FP-Win version if your a big-spender, but still use the included DOS f-prot.exe with Declude. As for autoupdate, attached a simple batch file to ftp down the updates. Have had it running under the NT scheduler service without problems. It takes a brute force approach - files are always downloaded, but I have gotten every signature and program update without fail. It has recently been updated to exclude f-prot.pif from being extracted. It uses the info-zip freeware unzip.exe that can be found at http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/UnZip.html. Modify the first three environment variables to match your configuration and run it. It will download/install/update f-prot for you. I haven't had any problems, but use at your own risk, YMMV. Jerry Note: I don't use the F-StopW real-time scanner(only recently available under NT). If you do, I would advise thorough testing of the batch file, or better, have your "Declude"copy that the update batch file hits in another directory. ----- Original Message ----- From: Adrian Henderson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 01, 2001 11:38 AM Subject: [IMail Forum] OT: Scanner for declude Help I am looking for an appropriate scanner to use with Declude on a Win2000 Server. I asked scott if a DOS version is useable, and he said it was. I am confused about how they work though. What are you guys using? (URL Pls) The reason I am asking is that the licencing requirements for MacAfee make Declude uneconomical in my situation, compared to a few other products. Do I really need a Win2000 server version of this? If anyone out there has bought a DOS verison from f-secure.com, or commandcom.com, how do you get it to automatically update? TIA I can be reached off-list at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
