                   *****  UPDATE INFORMATION VERSION 5.1AN *****

    1. Updated VTEC51AN for SCAN/CLEAN 9.18v107

       A. Removed /UNATTEND option support which was deleted and/or
          otherwise default integrated into Viruscan(tm) execution.

       B. Added support for the /AD, /ADL, /ADN network options. Added new
          main menu selection "NETWORK GROUP SERVICE" . Read VT51ADOC.TXT
          Page #21 for information on Local Area Network operation/install.

       C. The Virus Terminus v5.1AN is a general "LAN AWARE" program.
          MS-DOS v3.1 or higher + share.exe are required. Your LAN software
          must be compatible with DOS network services. Read VT51ADOC pg#21

    2. NOTE: Current memory requirement for SCAN is 390Kb free. The Virus
             Terminus occupies approximately 52Kb RAM when executing SCAN,
             CLEAN, or during DOS SESSION. ( VIRUSCAN 9.18v107 )

    3. Default Drive/Directory selections for all menus except NETWORK GROUP
       SERVICE default to LOCAL drives only. User or Installer may add the
       NETWORK drives to the selection list by pressing F5-PROGRAM SETUP and
       changing the configuration table entry ALL MENUS-LOCAL+NETWORK to ON.
       This switch will be ignored if all station drives report as network.
       This switch defaults to 'ON' for stand alone opertion.

    4. The Virus Terminus now requires minimum MS-DOS version 3.1

    5. Documentation and help updated to reflect current changes/additions.

    6. Added "CRC FILE ANALYSIS" selection to main menu. Option provides
       user selected file checksum analysis via McAfee Associates program
       VALIDATE.COM . NOTE: This option was and still is available in
       submenu selection "IMMUNIZE/DETECT/RECOVER"

    7. Added SCAN/CLEAN report type option switching to program setup
       configuration table. Modified F4-VIEW REPORTS to allow choice of
       either view individual reports or view activity log.

    8. Reminder: If you are using a notebook or mono-graphic display start
                 Terminus with the /m option to eliminate background colors
                 if desired.  ( vt51A.exe /m  <enter> )  Not necessary for
                 True MDA display types. Read VT51ADOC for more startup opts.

    9. The master activity log filename is now RPT_VT.TXT . The setup table
       entry ACTIVITY LOG DIRECTORY should only contain the volume\directory.
       User does not have a choice of log filename, only location.


   *****  UPDATE INFORMATION VERSION 5.1AN ***** Cont.

    9. VTEC51AN includes a new 32x32 16c ICON.

   10. OPTION-LOCK in the ON position now only locks F5-PROGRAM SETUP,
       F3-DOS SESSION, and <H> SCAN/CLEAN REPORT FUNCTIONS on most menus.
       Read VT51ADOC.TXT for more information.

   11. Added "F4-MAKE EMERGENCY WORK DISK" option to the program setup area.
       This operation will create an emergency work disk to be used in the
       event of computer virus infection. Please read VT51ADOC.TXT

   12. The Virus Terminus now accepts DOS wildcard filtering for directory
       displays, SCAN/CLEAN file selection, etc.  User is now given the
       option to first manually enter the intended drive\path\directory\file
       specification with wildcard if desired.

   13. First time configuration process modified. If SCAN, CLEAN, VALIDATE
       and VIRLIST are located in the same directory as The Virus Terminus,
       the table entries for those program locations will automatically be
       entered. Please refer to VT51ADOC.TXT for LAN installation.

   14. Added PASSWORD to continue when adding immunization, removing
       immunization, SCAN with delete or attempting recovery if a LAN is
       detected.

       This lock pertains to menu #3, IMMUNIZE/DETECT/RECOVER. Previously
       only having the F6-OPTIONS LOCK in the ON position would require the
       user to enter a password. Refer to VT51ADOC.TXT for information on
       password definition, location and modification.

   15. The Virus Terminus 5.1AN reads the DOS environment variable STCVTEC.
       Value of this variable may be set from the command line, startup batch
       program or autoexec.bat file. Set STCVTEC equal to Virus Terminus
       startup options. Read VT51ADOC.BAT for specific information on use
       and implementation.

   16. Removed menu support for the /MAINT option. This option may still be
       used if necessary by adding /MAINT to the "ADD SCAN PRGM OPTIONS"
       entry in the default table. Also, as of CLEAN 9.17v106 the /MAINT
       option is now default integrated into CLEAN.EXE

   17. Added "SCAN -ENTIRE DIRECTORY + RECURSIVE SEARCH" menu option to
       the SCAN/CLEAN DIRS/FILES menu. This options adds /SUB to the
       SCAN/CLEAN command line. Individual file selection is bypassed, the
       entire selected directory is scanned ( /SUB *.*), and any
       subdirectories found within are also scanned in the same manner.
