I am sorry you are having troables downloading teh McAfee SuperDAT.

Are you having troubles downloading from other sites ?

Another alternate method:

Download the EXE SuperDAT from here
http://www.mcafee.com/apps/downloads/security_updates/superdat.asp?region=us&segment=
enterprise

Assuming the SuperDAT is; sdat5216.exe

Rename sdat5216.exe to setup.exe

Save setup.exe in; C:\AV-CLS\mcafee

Then start the Multi AV Scanning Tool again and choose the McAfee module.

| Thanks again, David.

| David, my real-time resident AV is Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0.2.621.
| Would you regard it as superfluous scanning with the Kasperksy module in
| Multi-AV as well?


Thanx for the feedback Jean.

The personna BigBruva owns http://pcdid.com/Multi_AV.htm and I haven't been able to
communicate with him for well over a year.

What I will do is update the PDF Help File with this information. Maybe what I should do
is script this fall-back signature download as well.

If you have Kaspersky resident, then running the Kaspersky module is supurfluos in your
case.
