What's unique about this utility is how it can aid in the recovery of many fast moving viruses. ViruAssessment LAN Scanner detects the minute traces a virus leaves behind in your system's registry. By looking for the signs of a virus's activity in the registry of all you domain computers ViruAssessment can compile a list of infected systems very fast. In about 45 minutes you can scan 2000 systems. Once scanning is complete you have the opportunity to dump the scan results directly to Microsoft Excel 97, 2000, or XP versions. This allows you to dedicate your resources to systems needing immediate attention, with out wasting time blindly looking over each and every system in your domain. ViruAssessment LAN Scanner is database driven, so future viruses can easily be added to its database. This also allows you to target specific viruses you have been encountering. The database has two types of tables in it allowing you to simply test for the existence of a specific value in the registry, or to query a value and test it for specific data. This makes ViruAssessment much more adaptable to a wider variation of viruses. Future version will also allow for scanning remote win.ini, System.ini, and other start-up files as well as general virus related files. Targeting them specifically so as not to slow things down with full HD scans, which your current AV package already performs. When you're not busy tracking specific viruses, ViruAssessment currently will return the version of Norton's Antivirus, and the Current Virus Definition dates on all client systems. Great for tracking down systems that aren't keeping up to date with their Virus Definition files. The registered version of ViruAssessment LAN Scanner also has the ability to delete known registry values of viruses on a domain wide basis. So if a virus moves in on your domain, and spreads rapidly, once your current antivirus package catches up to the virus and quarantines or deletes it, ViruAssessment can go around and clean up most or all of the tampered registry keys left behind by the virus. Reports can then be dumped to Excel or directly to your default printer. This information can, in-turn, be utilized by your technical staff to visit the remote systems left over. Another nice feature of the "Delete Keys" option is its optional "Log Deletions" mode, which creates a log file of what values were deleted from what system.
