__________________________________________________ ________
IMPROVEMENTS

entire scanning process.

Refer to McAfee Support Knowledgebase article

Access Protection category for Virtual Machine Protection. These rules provide access protection

RESOLVED ISSUES

The resolved issues are divided into subsections per
patch, showing when each fix was added to the
compilation.

PATCH 7 RESOLVED ISSUES

1. ISSUE:
When installing a VirusScan Enterprise 8.5i patch, the existing On-Access Scanner service might fail
to unload. This leads to two instances of the service, with one consuming a high amount of CPU
usage.

RESOLUTION:
The On-Access Scanner service had been updated to avoid a runaway thread scenario that caused the
service, being replaced, to not stop.

NOTE:
To avoid this issue while installing Patch 7 or later, install HF427887 first. Refer to McAfee
Support KnowledgeBase article 616344 for further information.

2. ISSUE:
Changes to the VirusScan Enterprise core subsystem disabled performance optimization for handling
frequent write actions to INI and LOG files.

RESOLUTION:
The Anti-Virus Filter Driver was corrected to ensure that scanning of specified file extensions
is optimized, as in previous versions.

3. ISSUE:
A three-party deadlock occurred, causing the On-Access Scanner to become blocked until it times
out. This causes the scanner service to time out and eventually self-terminate.

RESOLUTION:
The Common Shell scanner has been updated to prevent the On-Access Scanner from becoming blocked
while the security libraries are loaded by the system.

4. ISSUE:
The extended reports NAP contained some ePolicy Orchestrator stored procedures that were needed to
add support for the VirusScan product line. The ePolicy Orchestrator patches have since made new
modifications to the same stored procedures. Therefore, when the VirusScan extended reports NAP
is checked in after the new ePolicy Orchestrator modified procedures are in place, they are
overwritten and the newer functionality is lost.

RESOLUTION:
The VirusScan extended reports NAP has been revised to no longer replace the ePolicy Orchestrator
stored procedures.

5. ISSUE:
If the Lotus Notes client is running during the uninstall of VirusScan Enterprise 8.5i, the Lotus
Notes Scanner entries might not be properly removed from the NOTES.INI file. This can cause the Lotus
Notes client to crash on subsequent starts.

RESOLUTION:
The Lotus Notes Scanner module has been corrected to remove its entries in the NOTES.INI file for all
scenarios.

6. ISSUE:
The VirusScan Enterprise Patch installer did not correctly preserve the MIDFileTime registry value.
This caused the McAfee Installation Designer (MID) .CAB files to be re-applied at the time of
installation.

RESOLUTION:
The Patch installer has been updated to correctly preserve the binary value of MIDFileTime.

7. ISSUE:
Changes made in Microsoft Vista SP1 and later, in how the operating system opens/views network files,
caused delays in opening new network paths, with the On-Access Scanner’s Network Scanning feature
enabled.

RESOLUTION:
The link driver has been modified to use a different method of accessing the network resources
that avoids the delays imposed by the operating system change.

8. ISSUE:
A 7E bugcheck (blue screen) might occur if an application shut down immediately after sending
data over the network.

RESOLUTION:
The link driver has been revised to better handle data that is transmitted by applications after the
driver has stopped.

9. ISSUE:
When the VirusScan NAP is checked in, it runs a script that enables anti-spyware settings in
policies and tasks, if the AntiSpyware 8.5 module NAP is in the ePolicy Orchestrator repository. The
intended purpose of the script is similar to the local AntiSpyware module installer, which enables
its settings when installed on a local system.

RESOLUTION:
The VirusScan NAP has been updated so that the script is disabled during check-in of the VirusScan
NAP package. This prevents the anti-spyware settings from being enabled when updating the
VirusScan NAP.

NOTE:
The McAfee AntiSpyware 8.5 module NAP has the same script in it. This means that if the McAfee
AntiSpyware 8.5 module NAP is installed after the VirusScan NAP, the anti-spyware settings are still
enabled.

10. ISSUE:
Servers that deal with many file writes were becoming unresponsive.

RESOLUTION:
The anti-virus filter driver was revised to correctly filter and dispatch scans on write.
