VirusScan runs under Windows 95 or 98 and conducts an interview during installation to help schedule regular scans, create a rescue boot disk set and use the new Safe and Sound utility which automatically backs up selected documents to a free area on the hard disk. VShield provides round-the-clock protection and monitors all files that are created, renamed, modified, copied or executed and blocks access to any it suspects are infected. Internet-borne viruses get a rough time as VShield scans all downloads and checks for hostile ActiveX controls and Java applets. Access to specific Web sites can be blocked using either a URL or IP address and the new X-Ray feature scans e-mail messages before they are even opened.
