Drweb Version 5

Hello,
the older drweb installer was called drweb-500-windows-nt-x86
now at the beta link if you login there is drweb-500-win-full.exe
im guessing it works on 64bit now.
not sure but will test on 64bit vista tomorow.
digital signiture of file 28th of november

btw now even on windows 2000 it uses the windows task sedular. no longer uses its own.
update every 30 mins is default task.

 

It seems that they changed some things under the hood also. The trouble i had installing the beta is totaly gone. I installed it over an existing installation of 4.44 and everything is runnig fine for me. I suggest that all the people having had trouble but still want to test the beta give this installer a try. At least it worked for me. But i would like to know what has been changed. CSJ perhaps you know something?

 

Hello,
i just started my virtual machine and updated drweb 5 beta.
it updated most of the main componants such as the guard,drivers etc.
it requested a reboot. after the reboot the guard now displays correct status. it says "spider guard is protecting your system" under spider guard,control.

 

I hope this will help.
Here is the page for the changelog, it is in Russian. You can use Google to translate the entire URL.

Before the installation of the new version of [setapa], it is necessary to remove previous Beta-[distributiv] by organic equipment.

Convincing request before the installation Beta-[distributiva]:

1. To move away all strange antiviruses. [Offitsialno] we are compatible not with one another antivirus; therefore in that case we do not can to guarantee correct installation.

2. To disconnect the programs of monitoring after a change in the list, type Of spyBot/Ad-Aware and the like so that [setap] could correctly establish necessary modules.

Hey dudes,
thanks for the changelog.
just redownloaded. has todays date as digital signuture.
now called security space 5.0
guessing we are testing the security suite version now.
i just unticked the security suite features.

 

so can anyone verify the added features are ther in the new release?? maybe time for me to reload it.. im about done with nis2009.. thanks

 

Hi zfactor!

Well i just downloaded and reinstalled. As far as i can see they just updated the scanner-engines. So there are no new features for now.
Btw is anybody running Dr.Web with Sunbelt Personal Firewall Pro?

 

if you untick stuff such as parental control during installation it now works.

 

I ran a full scan last night and about 10 minutes into the scan a message saying a problem had been encountered and Dr Web needed to close, appeared. Tried it again and the same thing happened. Has anyone else had this problem? By the way it worked fine a couple of weeks ago.

Paul

 

Does anyone know why the total number of virus records shown in V5 is approximately 37,000 lower than the total shown on the website?

Paul

 

Maybe more generic signatures but i am not sure.

 

I have no clue why it did that, however, I would suggest that you report it to them, using their forum and/or the bugtracker on the Beta page.

Let us know their response.

Cheers

 

Hi Paul E!

I have no trouble with the scanner on my system with vista ultimate 32. You should have a look if the scanner stops always at the same file or same type of file.

Concerning the definitions all vendors try to lower the amount without hurting the detections, because most of the definitions are loaded into ram during boot. The more definitions you have, the more ram is used what could be bad for the systemimpact. So in the case of Dr.Web they sorted definitions out that are detected by the new engine through the new heuritics or other technics. It has been so in the past so there is nothing to worry about.

 

You are absolutly right! Everything works fine for now during install.

There has just been a new update for many of the programfiles some minutes ago. Would be great to have a changelog for that.

 

Ok Hybride, here goes.
Dr Web Security Space is now at Version 5.0.0.12120
The most recent changelog is here (in Russian) ... you did a great job with the last one...lol

they was consolidated a little to get a low scan time.

 

Surely this is wrong? .

Signatures do not affect scan speed, it will be more Generic signatures.

 

"consolidated" = optimized, I think, means more generic signatures like you said.

And yes, number of signatures can affect the scan speed in certain cases. Or so I heard a number of years ago.....

 

no, they do. the signature == checksum of a data block which must be computed

 

do you mean the extra options or it works with his firewall? thanks im eagerly awaiting this as a whole suite i think this will be a great product or at least i hope so.. my test machine is down im going to reinstall tomm to try it out again if there are new features..

 

I mean if you untick any option in the installation it is now not installed.
in earlier versions if i unticked parental control it was still installed.
