I have CIS 7 Installed and just recently changed av from CAV to Avira Free. I wanted to keep CAV as a secondary antivirus protection with the right click scan.
I was able to do this but the database needs to be manually updated. Is the v5.8 database the correct one to use for CIS 7 ?
Thanks
The only frustration left is the Warning that CIS is at Risk because I turned off the CAV Real Time Protection. I submitted a suggestion but not many users have thought about using CAV as a secondary antivirus with out the real time protection.
Tried to import the the file downloaded last week and it failed. Deleted the file and downloaded again today and received the same error Bad Version Number in the File.
Tried to download the complete data base "Bases.Cav.Z but was unable to un-archive it until today. There are several files in the scanner folder but renamed the current bases.cav to bases.old and proceeded to update and again I get the error message
“Bad version number in the file”
As I mentioned earlier I want to keep Cavs as a secondary scanner with the right click scan, so I unchecked Real Time Scan and Disabled Antivirus.
Ronny or anyone have any ideas ?
I would like to keep Cavs as the secondary scanner even if I need to manually update
For me at least this problem is Resolved (Not Fixed) !
Trying to use the Manual Update Database Tool found in the About of the CIS gui never has worked and always gave me an error
“Bad Version Number in File”
What did work was in Safe ModeDeleted the oid bases.cav file, then copied the new Bases.cav to to Scanners folder found in the CIS folder.
Rebooted and when I ran Update from the gui everything looked okay no errors.
Wish the Manual Update Tool would work, but as it is I will probably need to download the full database when ever I want to update.
