Read the manual and Blackspear's very informative setup tutorial which I have applied to my system.

Now I use a download manager called Reget which will pass a file downloaded to a AV scanner

I have set this up as follows;

nod32.exe

Command line: test.exe /Clean /heur+ /scanboot- /scanmbr- /Quit

As I only want to scan the single file not all the other stuff!

But I get this error in the logs

Path test.exe\ is invalid.
Number of scanned files: 0
Number of threats found: 0

I don't know where the \ comes from.... or how to fix the problem....HELP

OR

Do I need to do this at all will NOD test the file as it comes onto my HD?

Thanks in advance

David

It thinks "test.exe" is a folder, not a file. Try using the full path, instead. If there are spaces in the full path, you may need to enclose it in quotes. For example:

Command line: "C:\full path\test.exe" /Clean /heur+ /scanboot- /scanmbr- /Quit

Thanks but not what I was looking for, the download manager passes the file to the AV so I have no control over it.

But I have learnt that NOD is indeed very good, if the download manager tries to download a nasty file NOD stops it and if a nasty appears on the computer NOD again despatches it with vigor...

Here is a good site to test your system
