Hi why would it be a could a idea simply becures we eliminate a lot of old viruses but we could allso make a function theire hold all exe files from execute when they contain some strange command f.eks the delete or format funtion or some other stuff or some kind of database and the send a signal out
Maybe Reactos->MaybeVirusFile(Filename,Path); VirusApps<-TestingFile(Filename,Path);
Ekstra Idea: And a funtion to Stop new apps from run (REGEDIT RUNAPPS etc.) Some New viruses use that way to start all the time and the user could be asked
NEW APP STARTING UP
RUN THE APP [X] DISMISS THE APP [ ] VIRUS TEST APP [ ]
Information about file
NEWER SHOW AGAIN [X]
And then make a group of apps that run i secure mode FOLDER SECURERUN and then make a group of apps that run i unsecure mode FOLDER UNSECURERUN So those in SECURE can�t change the reg and delete file e.g. don�t know just and idea
but think people should care more about getting reactos to work...

Hi Rick:
Well I don't believe that would be a protection at all against viruses. Why?
If I where to write a virus and knowing that reactos has such protection that would not stop me
at
all. I could simply write a function to calculate the hash in the virus (or simply tell the OS to
do it for me) and update such database. Look at windows file protection, virus laugh at it. I think the verification of the PE checksum is enough to tell if a file is corrupt and would be faster wich means a faster load. If you want to know some more about viruses look for the e-zines of 29A
on the internet to find out more about the subject. Their articles are as advanced as those in
