Comments ----------- The following are some peculiarities about the tested virus scanners. Those comments might be useful to have in mind when selecting one of those products. * Vectorcheck VT: Checks some vectors, displays their names, knows many patches VW: Checks many vectors, but shows only their offsets, knows many patches VZ: Checks many vectors, knows many patches XT: Checks several vectors * Reporting functions VT: Very good VW: Does not Report BB-Files, no automatic reporting VZ: Good, but includes ASCII control-characters XT: Good * Integrity check VT: Yes VW: Yes VZ: No XT: Yes * Heuristics VT: No VW: Yes (very good) VZ: No XT: No Other remarks: -------------- VW has a bug when checking bootblocks in files. When scanning the whole testbed VW for ex. reports no detection on files like Bytewarrior, Forpib., etc. After copying those files to an extra directory the check detects those samples. Normal users should have no problem with that, as they usually have BB-virii on the bootblock, and single check is performed anyway. Testing the scanner - nevertheless - is not easy this way. VZ reports on the screen that it is performing repair even if it is started without the repair option, regardless that in this case repair doesn't actually occur. XTRUDER is not able to check BB-Data files which makes testing for Bootblock-Viruses very hard. As the detection-brainfile is byte-to-byte identical to the one of our last test, we just copied the results from the 1996 test.
