The 69th & 70th bytes of the current McAfee definition file (%CommonProgramFiles%\Network Associates\Engine\Scan.dat) file are the 16-bit DAT version (little-endian). I asked NAI about this at least 7 years ago and they stated you shouldn't depend on it because it could change without notice. However, in all that time it has NEVER changed. Can't help you with Norton, sorry. On Fri, Feb 22, 2008 at 3:50 PM, Abhinav <kabhinav@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello List I am trying to programmitically find out the virus definition version of the anti -virus software installed. The two anit-virus we use in our company are from Norton and Mcafee. Is there a registry key/or windows api/WMI call that I can use which can provide me this information? Thanks -Abhinav
