KNOWN ISSUES

1.  Due to the comprehensive list of virus definitions within
    this DAT file, if used with VirusScan for Windows 3.1x 
    version 2.x, viewing the Virus List may cause your 
    system to run out of memory. 

2.  DOS 2.5.x scan engines with DAT 9706 will require 570KB
    of conventional memory. If you do not have the required
    memory, see next item. (This concerns only VirusScan for
    DOS. This does not concern VirusScan for Windows 95,
    3.1x, NT, OS/2, NetShield for Windows NT, NetShield for
    NetWare NLM, or any other VirusScan products.)

3.  For optimal performance, add and verify the following
    lines exist in your CONFIG.SYS file:

       DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS
       DOS=HIGH
    
    Where C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS represents the location of your
    HIMEM.SYS file.
 
____________
INSTALLATION

* INSTALLING THE PRODUCT *
   
Data file updates are stored in a compressed format
to reduce transmission time. To install your update,
create a temporary directory and copy the downloaded
file to the directory. Unzip the files, and copy them
to the appropriate permanent directories, replacing
your existing files.


* TESTING YOUR INSTALLATION *

The Eicar Standard AntiVirus Test File is a combined
effort by anti-virus vendors throughout the world to
come up with one standard by which customers can
verify their anti-virus installations. To test your
installation, copy the following line into its own file
and name it EICAR.COM.

X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*

When done, you will have a 69- or 70-byte file.

When VirusScan is applied to this file, Scan will report
finding the EICAR-STANDARD-AV-TEST-FILE virus.

It is important to know that THIS IS NOT A VIRUS.
However, users often have the need to test that their
installations function correctly. The anti-virus
industry, through the European Institute for Computer
Antivirus Research, has adopted this standard to
facilitate this need.

Please delete the file when installation testing is
completed so unsuspecting users are not unnecessarily
alarmed.
