I am trying to build a program for a PC Business to check and see if an antivirus is installed, if not suggest some that are available, but im lost when it comes to trying to get my program to check and see if one is installed.
I have been developing an antivirus using vb.net. The virus scanner works fine but I was thinking of ways to optimize the scanning speed (because large files take forever)
I am looking for a way to create a popup that will be shown like a 'somebody has come online' on msn , nod32 has 'scan results'. Howver I am unable to figure this out with 'tutorials' that dont work or projects that are out of date / canceled. I am looking for something thats being shown above all other apps that are open but without losing control over those apps. The fading etc is not that important I will figure this out when I get there.
I am using the code to show if antivirus is installed and to display its name. What other options are available under the
Dim searcher As New Management.ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT * FROM antivirusproduct")
like last update etc
Imports System.Management
Public Class Form1 Private Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim scope As New Management.ManagementScope("\.
I have run into a problem with installing my software. Once the setup gets to installing the exe file the resident antivirus program is removing this file from the installation folder and placing it automatically in quarantine. Message comes up saying it may contain a virus, which is not the case. Seems this is a new feature of antivirus software. I do not want the end user to be configuring their antivirus quarantine to restore the file.
I am writing an app that picks up information from wmi/securitycenter2 to show what antivirus, antispyware and firewall are installed It also returns a productstate value which shows whether product is enabled/disabled and whether definitons are up-to-date or outdated
I'm working on a script/application to remove the old version of Norman installed in a windows network. To do this I have this tool called"Delnvc5. exe"..To remove the installed client I've now used "Delnvc5.exe /quiet". On some computers where the users have admin rights.But the problem is on computers with other policies where the user is not allowed to run this application so i made this..[code]When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer rather than be handled by this dialog box.
How do programs like antivirus keep track of time passed for the trial period? Eg I want to make a program that expires and stop working in 30 days One way I thought of is to make use of the system time.
I cannot find a way to make a program that I write make a shortcut in the start menu for all users.My final goal is to make an MSI and deploy it in group policy to all users on a computers OU. Is this possible?
Dim IncomingCommand As String = e.CommandLine.Item(0).ToString
If IncomingCommand.Substring(0, 2) = "-1" Then
form1.close()
End If
End If
I am trying to make the program close if the -1 string is sent with the program. See my installer allows for me to run certain programs before it actually installs, but it doesn't shut down copies of the program itself. So I have a next startup instance set to shut the program down if the -1 is received. But if the program is not running it starts up instead. This is not desired. form1.close doesn't work. e.cancel = true doesn't work, etc etc. What can I do to make the program not start during this instance.

Can you make a MS-DOS program with Mirosoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition? I wanted to make one that doesn't have windows that pop out of Command Prompt, DOSBOX, or whatever is being used. I tried to create a message box, but it won't be like in MS-DOS! I don't know much on VB, but I need to make things all stay on DOSBOX. Here is the template that won't stay in the CLI:
Imports System.Windows.Forms Public Class Dialog1 Private Sub OK_Button_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
