Does your PC have the current level of McAfee VirusScan and Scan Engine installed?  Follow these instructions to find out:

  1. Right click on the McAfee icon in the bottom right of your screen (red and blue shield), and click about.

  2. A screen will pop up with McAfee VirusScan at the top of the box.  Inside the box are Serial number, Virus definitions, Created on, and Scan engine.

  3. If your scan engine is less than 4.1.50 you must update your scan engine.  If your scan engine is 4.1.50 or above you do not need the update and should not be affected by the SMS/logon push, although you will still receive smaller weekly virus definition updates.

  4. If your VirusScan (found at the top of the pop up box) is less than 4.5.0 you must update the VirusScan as well.  

Note: The McAfee VirusScan 4.5 already contains the current Scan engine.  Therefore, if you need to install McAfee 4.5 it is not necessary to install the Scan engine update.  If your VirusScan is at 4.5 but your Scan engine is down level you only need to install the Scan engine update.

    


Instructions for Updating the McAfee Scan Engine (field users only):

Field users have three different options for installing the McAfee Scan Engine update.  Please use the one you are most comfortable with.  Remember you must execute the program prior to 10/25/01 to prevent a forced download.  If you experience any problems or have questions, contact the help desk at 303.673.4357 (or 3HELP).

 

Option 1:

Click on ftp://avupdate.stortek.com/pub/antivirus/datfiles/4.x, double click on sdat4166.exe and download this file to a temp directory. Then execute the program from the temp directory.

 

Option 2:

Click on the link below for your local office.  This will bring up a screen showing SDATCurrent folder and a file sdatcurr.exe.  Double click sdatcurr.exe and the program will execute immediately and update your scan engine.



Option 3: 

Click on the link below for your local office.  This will bring up a screen showing SDATCurrent folder and a file sdatcurr.exe.  Copy sdatcurr.exe to your hard drive to execute it offline. This might save you some time if you are having problems staying connected for a complete install.


NOTE: The sdat4166 number in the instructions above increments weekly.  In other words the scan engine may read 4.1.50 or higher depending on when the update was installed.
