Resolution: The Anti-Virus Filter driver has been rectified to properly interpret the flag being sent from the on-access scanner.
16. Issue: In an ePolicy Orchestrator managed environment, the agent's Collect and Send Properties function could cause the
McAfee Product Manager service to spike its CPU utilization for extended periods of time. (Reference: 457421)
Resolution: The VirusScan Management Plug-in has been updated to call for the scan engine and DAT files via a new API call,
rather than initializing the engine to retrieve the information. This lessens the CPU time involved during the agent Collect and
Send Properties function.
17. Issue: With certain Access Protection rules enabled, VirusScan Enterprise was failing to return information to the Checkpoint
SecureClient software. (Reference: 444667)
Resolution: The binaries for Checkpoint integration have been updated to properly request information from VirusScan
Enterprise.
18. Issue: Attempting to start an on-demand scan via the VirusScan tray icon could result in an error on Microsoft Windows Vista.
(Reference: 446950)
Resolution: The VirusScan tray icon correctly calls the on-demand scanner on User Access Controlled operating systems.
19. Issue: Creating a McAfee Installation Designer change package for VirusScan Enterprise and the AntiSpyware Enterprise Module,
sometimes failed to upgrade the evaluations to licensed versions, for both products. (Reference: 437509)
Resolution: McAfee Installation Designer configuration applicator upgrades the licenses of VirusScan Enterprise and the
AntiSpyware Enterprise Module when they are both evaluations.
20. Issue: The VirusScan Console On-Delivery Email Scanner entry was not worded correctly in German. (Reference: 438931)
Resolution: The VirusScan Resource file updates the displayed text to the correct wording in German.
21. Issue: One of the ScriptScan "McLogEvent" entries was always recorded in English. (Reference: 431071)
Resolution: The Announcer library was updated to remove the extra notification.
22. Issue: In some cases, VirusScan Enterprise was not properly displaying Patch information about itself and currently installed
VirusScan Modules*. (Reference: 456826)
Resolution: The VirusScan Management Plug-in has been updated to gather the current information about Patch levels of its
installed VirusScan Modules*.
23. Issue: When there were HotFixes or Patches available for the VirusScan Modules*, they were not being downloaded to the
clients. (Reference: 445494)
Resolution: The AutoUpdate binary was modified to check for the existence of the VirusScan Module* licenses when deciding
which HotFixes or Patches to install.
24. Issue: Script errors were seen when attempting to view the Japanese text, of the product description window, in ePolicy
Orchestrator 3.6.x. (Reference: 434203)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i NAP file has been updated to display the Japanese page in its proper Unicode format (UTF-8).
25. Issue: The alert options for Network Appliance Filer and ICAP scanners were visible on the workstation ePolicy Orchestrator
policies. (Reference: 448361)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i NAP and extension have been updated to remove the alert options for alert options for Network
Appliance Filer and ICAP scanners, from the workstation policy, as those scanners are server specific.
26. Issue: Some ePolicy Orchestrator operational events were not being generated for the VirusScan Modules*. (Reference: 434423)
Resolution: The VirusScan Reports extension updates the current VirusScan Enterprise Event IDs (1329 – 1339) to be used for
the VirusScan Modules*.
27. Issue: The on-demand scan log file validation checked for invalid file characters, including the "<" and ">" characters.
(Reference: 433776)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i extension validation for the path name of the on-demand scanner log file now allows the "<"
and ">" characters, which are needed for ePolicy Orchestrator macro variables.
28. Issue: The alert options for the VirusScan Modules* would not gray out when inheritance was enforced on the parent policy.
(Reference: 434231)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i NAP now properly enforces inheritance on the VirusScan Module alert options.
29. Issue: Events generated by the VirusScan Enterprise for Offline Virtual Images 1.0 software were not being generated in ePO
reports. (Reference: 439832)
Resolution: The McAfee Announcer library changed properties of the events to support current reporting in ePolicy Orchestrator
3.6.1.
30. Issue: Scanning events generated by VirusScan Enterprise 8.7i were not populating the Task Name with proper information.
(Reference: 453515)
Resolution: The McAfee Announcer library now populates the Task Name with the scanner that generated the event.
31. Issue: The Access Protection includes and exclude fields permitted a limited number of characters in the extension interface.
(Reference: 457418/457419)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i extension updates the maximum limit of the include and exclude fields, to be consistent with
the point-product interface.
32. Issue: Scanner exclusions that were entered in ePolicy Orchestrator with a preceding blank space did not show up correctly
when they were enforced on the client. (Reference: 457420)
