Tip of the Month - Getting the Most from Your McAfee
Anti-Virus Protection Our first suggestion for getting the
most from your McAfee Anti-Virus software is almost self-evident.
Since the DATs hold the data required to find, identify and remove
viruses, worms and other malicious code, they need to be updated to
protect against the latest threats. However, where does the scan
engine fit in? New types of virus appear, new file-types become
vulnerable to infection, applications and operating systems are
updated. In addition, McAfee's anti-virus developers create better
and faster ways to scan and clean files - for older as well as newer
types of infection. To take account of this, McAfee regularly
updates its scan engine. So, to benefit fully from McAfee's world
class detection and cleaning technology, you should keep both DATs
and scan engine updated. To download the latest SuperDAT file, click
here for more information on McAfee's detection and cleaning
technology, and download our "Scan Engine
and DATs".
