McAfee recommends that you read the entire document. ------------------------------------------------------------- Contents Features Installation and System Requirements Known Issues Configuring Your Web Browser Documentation Contacting McAfee Copyright and License Agreement ------------------------------------------------------------- Features VirusScan USB provides the following features: Protection against potentially unwanted programs VirusScan USB protects your USB drive from spyware, adware, and other potentially unwanted programs. Real-time protection When enabled, VirusScan USB real-time scanning continually monitors file changes on your USB drive, and protects it against virus and other potentially unwanted activity. On-demand scanning On-demand scanning lets you scan your USB drive for viruses, Trojans, spyware, adware, and other potentially unwanted programs at any time. Customize scan options You can customize the way on-demand scanning and real-time protection checks and safeguards your USB drive against Trojans, spyware, adware, and other potentially unwanted programs. For example, you can specify which types of files are scanned (archives, subfolders, and active processes) and the locations to scan. Automatic scanning A VirusScan USB on-demand scan starts each time you insert your USB drive into your computer. Scan summary While scanning, VirusScan USB displays the number of items scanned, infected, and renamed. When the scan is completed, the scan summary shows the results, including the path and name of each infected file, and how VirusScan USB handled any infected items. VirusScan USB also provides detailed information about each infected file, including the object type, name, status, and file name. ------------------------------------------------------------- Installation and System Requirements Your USB drive must use the U3(TM) platform. Please visit www.u3.com for more information about U3 smart drives. If you are using Windows Vista(TM), a Vista-compatible U3 LaunchPad is required for your USB drive. Microsoft(R) Windows(R) 2000 Service Pack 4, Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows Vista 32-bit Personal computer with Pentium-compatible processor 300 MHz or higher 128 MB RAM U3 USB smart drive with at least 25 MB free space (SanDisk(R) is McAfee’s preferred provider of U3 smart drives) Internet Explorer(R) 6.0 or later Note: To upgrade to the latest version of Internet Explorer, visit the Microsoft Web site at http://www.microsoft.com/. ------------------------------------------------------------- Known Issues If you are using Vista and you click Eject when prompted, your USB drive does not eject. If there is not enough USB drive space during registration, an incorrect message appears. The message says that the program is expired, but it is not. If you do not have enough USB drive space, DAT files—files containing information that protect you against the latest threats—cannot be updated. Your VirusScan USB subscription expires prematurely when you use a Windows Guest account and your computer enters hibernation mode at the end of a scan. Recover your subscription by ejecting and then reconnecting your USB drive. The VirusScan USB registration wizard does not accept non-English or special characters in the e-mail address or password boxes. When VirusScan USB recommends that you eject your USB drive, the U3 LaunchPad incorrectly displays an unsafe ejection message when you reinsert it. If you install VirusScan USB on a U3 drive that already has a previous version of VirusScan USB, the file size is sometimes listed as not available on the U3 Program Manager Console. To fix this, remove the previous version of VirusScan USB before installing another version. During registration, you may receive an error message advising that your computer is not connected to the Internet, and that you must restart VirusScan USB after connecting. When you reconnect, you can resume registration. VirusScan USB installation fails when files from a previous installation or installation attempt are on the USB drive. Manually delete the program folder on the USB drive and then try reinstalling. The link for renewing a valid subscription opens the same Web page used for an expired subscription. If you change the LaunchPad language, restart VirusScan USB to apply the new language. You can install VirusScan USB on more than one USB drive, or on the same USB drive more than once, with the same account information. However, the same account registration information can only be used up to five times. ------------------------------------------------------------- Configuring Your Web Browser Scripting languages, such as JavaScript and VBScript, bring dynamic and interactive features to Web sites.
