Compontents:
VirusBuster command line scanners The VirusBuster Scanners are sometimes the only solution for a critical problem. Because of its size and the several supported platforms, the command line scanner is a truly effective tool for finding and removing virus infections.
Their main task is to find virus infections on the data storage systems and other areas and if possible remove them. The programs can be loaded from the command line and its operation can be adjusted with aid of parameters.
Incremental virus database update
Using the incremental update mechanism the download time is reduced to a minimal level so we can release additional virus database packages several times a day to improve the defence. Users can obtain protection against new malware without spending long time and generating considerable network load for the update.
Outstanding performance
The program's simple and logical architecture and the VirusBuster scan engine guarantee the highest possible performance for every virus scan.
Heuristics scanning levels
Using the heuristics the software tries to detect codes and programs, which have virus-like characteristics but are not registered in the virus database. If such a suspicious file is found, the user is notified.
Multi-thread scanning
The multi-thread operation provides faster scanning using parallel processing. It results in better performance, shorter scanning time.
Configuration file
It is possible to store the general settings in a configuration file so there is no need to specify the scanning parameters to each scanning.
Several supported platforms
The program supports several platforms providing a reliable platform-independent protection.
The product is available with scandaemon support as well.
Check the name of the package: vbscand means the scandaemon version, vbscan means the regular version.
