The archived version of the original post shows the attachment in-line and wraps some of the lines.

 

There is no change in the script, only posted via HTML to to prevent wrapping in the archive, along with an attached zip file of the same.

rem Updates a Mcafee *! COMMAND LINE !* scanner installation  with latest
rem engine and daily dat files.

 

rem WARNING:
rem NAI considers the daily dat files BETA quality.  Use at your own risk.

 

rem WARNING:
rem NAI could change the behavior of the SuperDAT packages at any time,
rem rendering this script useless or even dangerous.

 

rem WARNING:
rem This is *NOT* designed to update a running on-access/real-time scanner 
rem installation. If using Netshield or VirusScan on-access/real-time
rem scanners, create a separate directory for the command line functionality.
rem
rem Alternatively, it is possible to use the same techniques to automate
rem updating of the real-time Netshield/VirusScan.  Get SDATDAILY.exe instead
rem of DAILIYDAT.ZIP, and look at the sdat command line switches to install
rem the sdat(s) silently. Proceed with caution, and test all possible
rem scenarios.  An SDAT updating a running Netshield may want to reboot (more
rem likely for the "release" sdat41## file, probably not an issue for
rem sdatdaily).  Proceed with caution.

 

rem Requires info-zip's unzip.exe 5.42 www.info-zip.org
rem Requires gnu wget, links to Windows binaries at www.cygwin.com or
rem www.wget.org. 
rem
rem NOTE command line change for wget 1.8 or greater!
