Anti Virus
Submitted by oyahadmin on Tue, 01/29/2008 - 02:47.
| An antivirus program that searches for binary signatures (patterns) of known viruses that have attached themselves to executable programs. As new viruses are discovered, the signature database has to be updated in order for the antivirus program to be effective. Vendors generally offer downloads via the Web in order to keep current. There are two ways in which scanners work. One type scans every file each time you boot the computer and each time a file is opened. The other takes a blueprint of all existing executables one time and scans the file only when it has changed. The latter method saves time when starting or rebooting the computer since there is no processing performed. In addition, opening files is quicker, because the antivirus software does not scan the file unless it has been changed, and it can determine if the file has been changed much faster than it can scan it for thousands of viruses. |
