About VirusScan Software
What's new in this release?
This VirusScan release introduces a number of innovative new features to the
product's core functionality, to its range of coverage, and to the details of its
application architecture. The section "How does VirusScan software work?"
on page 25 of the VirusScan User's Guide, discusses many of these features. The
single most significant change between previous VirusScan versions and this
release, however, is the integration of two separate VirusScan versions
optimized to run on separate Windows platforms into a single product that
runs on both. This single product also takes full advantage of each platform's
strengths.
The next sections discuss other changes that this VirusScan release introduces.

An administrator's guide saved on the VirusScan software
CD-ROM or installed on your hard disk in Adobe Acrobat .PDF
format. The VirusScan Administrator's Guide describes in detail how
to manage and configure VirusScan software.
–
An online help file. This file gives you quick access to a full range of
topics that describe VirusScan software. You can open this file either
by choosing Help Topics from the Help menu in the VirusScan
main window, or by clicking any of the Help buttons displayed in
VirusScan dialog boxes.
The help file also includes extensive context-sensitive—or "What's
This"—help. To see these help topics, right-click buttons, lists, icons,
some text boxes, and other elements that you see within dialog
boxes. You can also click the ? symbol at the top-right corner in most
dialog boxes, then click the element you want to see described to
display the relevant topic. The dialog boxes with Help buttons open
the help file to the specific topic that describes the entire dialog box.
–
A README.TXT file. This file contains last-minute additions or
changes to the documentation, lists any known behavior or other
issues with the product release, and often describes new product
features incorporated into incremental product updates. You'll find
the README.TXT file at the root level of your VirusScan software
CD-ROM or in the VirusScan software program folder—you can
open and print it from Windows Notepad, or from nearly any
word-processing software.
