Re: [Declude.Virus] Question on Yaha virus
If the script ran fine, then you have the updater. F-Prot for Window's updater is called updater.exe. We use the Windows command line version fpcmd.exe as it is 32-bit and should run more efficiently. What new version? F-Prot for Windows is at version 3.12c. It includes the DOS 16 bit scanner f-prot.exe as well, if you want to use that; but fpcmd.exe might be more sophisticated at scanning for viruses. I don't know for sure. -- Dan Bob McGregor wrote: thanks Dan, I just ran this and it said I had no updates to make (makes sense to me as my def files are current.) How do i get the new version of the program with the updater? Does the updater allow me to get the new version or is there another way I have to get current version? sorry for the questions but I was going along dumb until this and now am a bit confused. Scott, can I still just use f-prot.exe for scanning or do I have to use fpcmd.exe? thanks, bob On Thursday, January 16, 2003 4:05 PM, Dan Star [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This was discussed a few weeks ago.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Question on Yaha virus
Thanks all for the help. I decided to just go to the frisk web site and download the new version which indeed updated the fpcmd.exe. I guess I'll change to scheduling the updater.exe for definitions and just check with frisk for new releases. I appreciate all the help and suggestions. Now I'll wait and see if yaha gets caught correctly... bob On Thursday, January 16, 2003 4:56 PM, R.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Question on Yaha virus
is that the option now then? Only use frisk's updater and not a batch scheduled job? I like the batch proccess as I get an e-mail that I can check to see new definition files and for success of transfer and install. Maybe the updated does that now too although I like what I get from my batch process. Does anyone still schedule the batch updater and successfullly receive the fpcmd.exe?

Re: [Declude.Virus] Question on Yaha virus
Doesn't the Windows version of F-Prot, which is where the fpcmd.exe is from, have it's own updater? Yes and this is what we use here. So far it works great for us.
