McAfee VirusScan Anti-Virus Software

Figure 2-11. Configuration panel

16. If your computer runs Windows 95 or Windows 98, you can choose any 

of the configuration options shown here. These are:

Scan boot record at startup

. Select this checkbox to have Setup 

write these lines to your Windows AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

C:\PROGRA~1\NETWOR~1\MCAFEE~1\SCAN.EXE C:\

@IF ERRORLEVEL 1 PAUSE

This tells your system to start the VirusScan Command Line scanner 
when your system starts. The scanner, in turn, will pause if it detects 
a virus on your system so that you can shut down and use the 
VirusScan Emergency Disk to restart.

Create Emergency Disk

. This option is active by default. It tells 

Setup to depart from its normal sequence to start the Emergency 
Disk creation utility. The creation utility formats and copies a 
scanner and support files onto a bootable floppy disk you can use to 
start your system in a virus-free environment. You can use this disk 
to scan portions of your hard disk for viruses. After the utility 
creates the disk, it returns to the regular Setup sequence. Clear this 
checkbox to skip the Emergency Disk creation. You can start the 
utility at any time after installation.
