U can change the NAVDX.EXE options as U want

[Former_Wekkel_post]

Which version are you referring to?

[Xephion]

Sorry, no go bud. When testing this I get the error:

16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem
D:\Programs\NORTON~E\NAVDX.EXE
An application has attempted to directly access the hard disk, which cannot be supported. This may cause the application to function incorrectly. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

I used Norton AV 2004. This falls under the 16 bit application problem that WinPE has.
Well back to the drawing board!

[evilvoice]

do u include dospe? it should work under the dospe plugin

[Xephion]

@evilvoice
I have DosPE enabled. Did you get the plugin to work? It seems to be wanting direct access to the hard drive, like PartitionMagic. Any ideas?

@Wekkel
NAV2K4

@Xephion
I got this Msg too but
If U hit Ignore NAV will scan for viruses

I test it with [eicar.com] virus and its delet it

that mean it,s working fine

I'd change
start b:NAVlog.txt
to
start %temp%NAVlog.txt
but that's just me.

[evilvoice]

have u tested moving the entire thing to ramdisk and try? Im only saying cuz u said it might need hd access

[Xephion]

Sorry, I tested it again and it worked as you mentioned. I don't know what happened last time...! Call me a perfectionist, but I wonder if there is a way to override the 16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem error message.
Anyone know?

I don't doubt that your plugin works and the only reason I recommend using the temp variable is then I don't have to boot the cd and not everyone has their ramdisk at drive B and FWIW I have mine at drive Z.

[Xephion]

@Svenska
Oh, I totally agree with your %temp% variable replacement. I think it would be more fail-safe, especially in cases like yours where the ramdisk is a different drive letter.

I'm currently trying to find a command switch that will disable to error message at the startup of this program. Searching the web...

[Former_bud_post]

I'd change
start b:NAVlog.txt
to
start %temp%NAVlog.txt
but that's just me. 

good idea
but don't forget to change [NAV_nu2menu.xml]
to create the NAVlog.txt in the %temp% not in the b:

vr.cmd

CODE

start %temp%NAVlog.txt

but I wonder if there is a way to override the 16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem error message.
Anyone know?

I hope U can find solution for this

Is anyone else having trouble with getting Norton to scan every file on the C: drive? On mine, it starts scanning files, scans a few in the Document and Settings, and then skips to the D: drive. It toally skips over Programs Files and the Windows folders.

[jwehr]

Seems to me that the long pathnames in Docs and Settings are prohibiting navdx from scanning it. That makes the plugin a bit useless to.. Anyone have any solutions?

[vexation]

Think this has been mentioned elsewhere in the forum at some point, but Symantec / Norton DO have a Command Line Win32 Virus Scanner but it ISN'T a part of Norton AV for home users, pretty sure it's a stand-alone product or for enterprise/small business users only, anyway.. the file is called savcls_win32.exe if you can find it anywhere.. this should stop those 16bit subsystem error's and fix any long file name scanning problems you may have..

[d4vr0s]

savcls_win32.exe is NOT a stand alone win32 scanner, it requires a special server to work.

Hi!

Does someone know how to get norton antivirus work on BartPE?
I mean not the 16bit command line version.

thanx!
