• New interface settings for task configuration allow you to tell the
VirusScan application how you want it to appear as your scheduled task
runs and what you want it to do when it finishes. You can also set a
password to protect individual task settings from changes, or to protect an
entire task configuration at once.

New update options for your VirusScan software
Even with the majority of the virus definitions it requires now incorporated
directly into its engine in generic routines, VirusScan software still requires
regular .DAT file updates to keep pace with the 200 to 300 new viruses that
appear each month. To meet this need, McAfee has incorporated updating
technology in VirusScan software from its earliest incarnations. With this
release, that technology takes a quantum leap forward with incremental .DAT
file updating.
