is this possible ?!!

[minacross]

I just checked the newly detected viruses pages of both the InoIT engine and the Vet engine of eTrust7 promo (Newly Detected Viruses (http://www3.ca.com/support/vicdownload/NewlyDetected.aspx))..
I just copied each one to Ms-Word and checked the document properties..
InoIT contains 1694 lines, Vet contains 1803 lines.
each line is a virus..
So, we have about 2000 newly detected viruses since the last update ??? ??? ??? ???
this is the largest newly detected amount I have ever seen ::) ::) ??? ???

To Minacross from Firefighter!

Even I have just sent some 30 -35 differerent infected archives to CA, but I can't remember how many of those were new to Inoculate or VET.

Inoculate is almost perfect scanning engine as a common family use in my mind when u only admit it's limitations!

Hi Mina. :)
I think it goes this way.
If you look at the version 23.63.34 ( that is the latest) you can see, that there is 16 new entries, if you understand what i mean.
The next update will be called 23.63.35 and so it goes.
Best regards
Ole

EDIT. This is the latest update.

23.63.34 VBS/INOR.VARIANT DETECTION

If you look at the Mimail j. entry it was detected on day one, but now they have added a systemcure, therefore the new entry.

[minacross]

do you mean the update is cumulative ???? if it is, then eTrust detects these only 2000 viruses? ::) ::) ::)

[Madsen DK]

No no they detects more, dont worry ;D
This list is the latest detected. 23.63.34. The list contains the latest 34 updates.
When they reach 23.63.99, the list starts all over again with 00. AFAIK.
Regards
Ole

Edit. Next time 63 will probably be 64, something with the engine i think, but the routine will be the same.
Perhaps some Etrust wizards can jump in to confirm or to correct me if im wrong.
