The Russian anti-virus vendor Doctor Web announced the release of updated Dr.Web products for Windows. The update provides compatibility with Windows 7 and adds several improvements to Dr.Web for Windows.
In the face of the upcoming release of the new operating system Doctor Web developers had to solve a number of difficult tasks in particular to make the self-protection technologies of Dr.Web for Windows compatible with the security system of Windows 7. A lot of effort was put into perfection of Dr.Web Shield that eventually gave users a unique anti-rootkit tool. The anti-rootkit’s access subsystem no longer relies on functions provided by an operating system meaning that it won't be blocked by a rootkit Now Dr.Web anti-virus is even more efficient at performing the main function of any anti-virus – curing infections." }-

The update makes the solutions compatible with Windows 7 and provides several fixes and improvements. The scanner:
* a new object access subsystem for the anti-rootkit module (detection of malicious programs that intercept system functions to hide their presence in a system) that doesn’t use features of an OS and can't be blocked by a rootkit;
* the autorun scan now also can check and restore a modified HOSTS file (malicious programs often alter contents of the file to direct a user to bogus web-sites or block access to web resources of anti-virus vendors);
* Improved compatibility with virtual machines;
* A fix of an error when the scanner froze while checking removable IDE/SCSI disks;
* A fix of an error that made the scanner freeze when it was launched using the context menu;
The mail and web traffic interception module used by SpIDer Mail and SpIDer Gate:
* A fix of memory leaks issue
* Compatibility with Safari.
The anti-virus engine memory leak issues have been corrected and self-protection of the anti-virus has been improved.
