Note: Due to the size or complexity of this submission, the author has submitted it as a .zip file to shorten your download time. Afterdownloading it, you will need a program like Winzip to decompress it.Virus note:All files are scanned once-a-day by Planet Source Code for viruses, but new viruses come
out every day, so no prevention program can catch 100% of them. For your own safety, please:
Re-scan downloaded files using your personal virus checker before using it.
NEVER, EVER run compiled files (.exe's, .ocx's, .dll's etc.)--only run source code.
Scan the source code with Minnow's Project Scanner
If you don't have a virus scanner, you can get one at many places on the net
including:McAfee.com

It is from vxheaven.com. you have to download a dvd full of compressed file. extract it and you will get all 66700 viruses and then create a dat file from md5 or crc checksum. (thats what i had done) (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
code is good, but definitions lacking there, what happens when your definitions expire then what? Your software then becomes useless. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
This is just a example . you can build definitions by downloading the entire virus collection (as kaspersky does) and make defs every month. to download viruses goto http://vx.netlux.org/faq.php#whole (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Hi Ajay, Can you guide how do i integrate anti-spyware and anti-rootkit modules. I have the samples with me and generated the signatures. I understand it needs registry scanning but your code only scans files. So how do i do that? (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
i cant get the signiture updates the website says not found.Can you provide a mirror download link? (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
this is one of the best antiviruses in vb that i have ever seen! 5/5! keep up the good work. Everything works fine :) (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
when trying to download the virus definitions from vxheaven forum, one gets this message: You don't have permission to download the attachment because you have less than five posts and one karma on this forum. besides, for 270000 samples it's a 45Gb download, 62Gb unpacked. kind of... large. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Hi ajaybnl, ajaybnl.comuf.com/av.mdb is not found. please re-up (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
