Multi-platform CD-ROMs and disks with anti-virus software for different platforms are nothing new - the first 3.5 inch floppies supporting Windows PCs and Apple Macs first appearing in the late 1980s - but Central Command claims its product is the first to span all five operating system platforms. The system, the Ohio-based company says, will scan and remove more than 64,000 viruses, trojans and other malware from the relevant platforms using a single CD-ROM or a four-floppy disk set. Specifically, Central Command says the package will work with the following file systems: Microsoft FAT 16, FAT 32, VFAT, NTFS, Linux ext2, ReiserFS and UMSDOS, IBM OS/2 HPFS, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris and UNIX UFS, CD-ROM ISO9660, Minix, FreeVxFS, Veritas VxFS, System V, Xenix, V7 and UDF. Steve Sundermeier, the company's product manager, told Infosecurity News that the rescue kit was available free of charge from the company's web site and users are encouraged to visit the web site to download a trial of a fully-functional anti-virus application for their machines. http://www.centralcommand.com -- To unsubscribe yourself from this list, send the following message to majormajoratos2voice.org unsubscribe news end If you have an announcement you would like posted to the VOICE News list, please send it to submitatos2voice.org.
