RE: NAV Virus Definitions

[Luke Brumbaugh]

I used to do this with Norton, but I quit after doing several confidence tests.

I used sysdiff from cd

 updated the dat

 ran a full scan of harddrive

 sysdiff /diff

 examined diff.

 deployed.

You might do it another way, but that satisfied my needs.

Don't use Norton but I don't test the signature files from Network Associates either.  Am I missing something, such that I should start to test the signature files?

I have briefly mentioned this one in another thread but I'd like to get a broader response.

 

Does anybody TEST their Symantec Norton Anti-Virus signature files before making them available to production networked clients.

OS's concerning me are: Win95 OSR2, WinNT4 SP4  and SP6, Win2K Pro.

Versions of NAV include: 4.08, 5.0, 7.5ce.

 

Thanks for any feedback,

Charlie
