Once you create images of the disks you want to send, you can send them as
file attachments in an e-mail message to McAfee VirusScan's anti-virus
researchers.
Preparing file archives to send
Try to fit as many of file samples as you can on a single floppy disk. To do so,
compress the samples that you captured on disk to a single .ZIP file with
password protection. Here's a suggested procedure that uses the WinZip
utility:
1. Start WinZip.
2. Press CTRL+N to create a new archive.
The New Archive dialog box appears.
3. Enter a name for the new archive, then click OK.
4. Press CTRL+A to add files to the new archive.
The Add dialog box appears.
5. Click Password to display the Password dialog box.
6. Type INFECTED in the Password text box, then click OK.
7. When prompted, retype your password to verify its accuracy, then click
OK.
The Add With Password dialog box appears.
8. Select your sample files, then click OK.
WinZip applies the password you entered to all files that you add to or
extract from your archive. Password-protected files appear in the archive
list with a plus sign (+) after their names.
Š NOTE: If you do not protect your samples with the password
INFECTED, McAfee VirusScan's anti-virus scanners may detect and
clean samples before they reach our researchers.
9. Attach the .ZIP file that you created to an e-mail message.
Sending samples via e-mail
Once you've made disk images or created a file archive for your samples, send
them to McAfee VirusScan's researchers at one of these e-mail addresses:
