Deploying, updating, and managing options
Decide whether you want to preconfigure the installation package and how you want
to perform updates and deploy the product. The installation procedure may vary if you
use supporting tools to deploy, preconfigure, update, or manage VirusScan Enterprise.
Preconfiguring the installation package
Use McAfee Installation Designer 8.5 to preconfigure or customize the installation
options for VirusScan Enterprise. When preconfiguring the installation package, we
recommend including:
„
„
Where and how you get updates.
When you check for updates (the default is daily at 17:00 local time to the
computer).
„
Which policy settings should be defined.
See the McAfee Installation Designer 8.5 Product Guide for more information.
Deploying the installation package

We recommend that before you push the software to client computers, you use
McAfee Installation Designer to replace or update the default detection definition (DAT)

and engine files included in the installation package. This ensures that the client
computer has the most current protection at installation time. It also saves network
bandwidth by not having to retrieve the updated files after installation.
Installing and configuring the software for use with other products

Installation scenarios
Use these scenarios to customize your installation:
Scenario
Description
Silent
A silent installation does not display the installation wizard or offer the
user any configuration options. Instead, you preconfigure those
choices and run Setup in the background on each destination
computer. You can install VirusScan Enterprise software on any
unattended computer with or without the user’s knowledge, provided
you have the necessary administrator rights.
Add these options to run a silent or semi-silent installation:
„
q or qn Silent installation. This installs default settings unless you
specify otherwise. For example, the product license default is a 1
Year Subscription.
„
„
qb Basic user interface. Use qb! to hide the Cancel button.
qb+ Basic user interface with a modal dialog box displayed at the
end of installation. Use qb+! or qb!+ to hide the Cancel button.The
modal dialog box is not displayed if the user cancels the installation.
„
„
„
„
qb- Basic user interface with no modal dialog boxes. Use qb-! or qb!-
to hide the Cancel button.
qf Full user interface and any authored FatalError, UserExit, or Exit
modal dialog box displayed at the end of installation.
qn+ No user interface except for a modal dialog box displayed at the
end of installation.
qr Reduced user interface with no modal dialog displayed at the end
of installation
Custom Location
Login Script
Add the installdir property to specify the location. For example, to
silently install VirusScan Enterprise software to C:\My AntiVirus
Software, type this text at the command prompt:
setup.exe INSTALLDIR="c:\My AntiVirus Software" /q
Add a Setup command to your login script to install VirusScan
Enterprise software at the time each of your destination computers
starts. Include all of the options and properties for governing how
Setup runs. For example, you can add a property to look for the
VirusScan Enterprise default program location.
Notes and Tips
To use a login script for this purpose, you must also copy or push the
VirusScan Enterprise installation package to a local location on the
destination computer.
Installation options and properties
Use a combination of options and properties to customize the software installation.

Removing program files
Removing program files
Use one of these methods to remove the software.
Using the Setup utility to remove program files
1 Start the Setup utility to open the Program Maintenance dialog box:
2 Select Remove.
3 Select Remove again, then click Finish.
After VirusScan Enterprise is removed, you may be prompted to remove remaining
files or folders. Click Yes or No.
Note
These are files or folders which were not installed initially with the VirusScan Enterprise
product such as, log files or other files or folders that the user added. For example, the
aseinst.log is used for debugging and is left in the %TEMP%\MCAFEELOGS folder.
Using the command line to remove program files
Use this syntax to remove the software:
<X>:\SETUP.EXE /x
Here, <X>: represents the drive letter for your CD-ROM or the path of the folder that
contains the extracted program files. To search for the correct files on your hard disk
or CD, click Browse. If your copy of the software came on a product suite CD, you must
also specify which folder contains the specific software package.
Using the Add/Remove Programs utility to remove program files
1 Click Start, then select Settings | Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs to open the
Add/Remove Programs utility that is included in the Windows Control Panel
2 Select the VirusScan Enterprise program from the list of installed programs, then
click Remove.
We strongly recommend that you restart your computer after removing files and before
you reinstall the software.
Note
When you remove files using Setup on the command line, some files or stopped
services may not be removed. For example, if you remove the VirusScan Enterprise
product while the McAfee Task Manager or the McShield services are stopped, these
services are not removed. Restarting after removing files ensures that all files and
services are removed before reinstalling the software.

Post-Installation Tasks

Testing your installation
Once installed, the software can scan your system for potentially unwanted files. You
can test whether it is installed correctly and can properly scan for potentially unwanted
programs by implementing a test developed by the European Institute for Computer
Anti-Virus Research (EICAR).
To test your installation:
1 Using a standard Windows text editor such as Notepad, type the following string,
on a single line with no spaces or line breaks:
X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*
2 Save the file with the name EICAR.COM. The file size is 68 or 70 bytes. Make a note
of the folder in which you saved the file.
3 Start the VirusScan Enterprise program.
4 To test the on-demand scanner, create an on-demand scan task that examines the
folder where you saved EICAR.COM. When the scanner examines this file, it reports
finding the EICAR test file.
5 To test the on-access scanner, confirm that the on-access scanner is configured to
scan files written to the computer and files read from the computer. See
Configuring the on-access scanner properties in the VirusScan Enterprise Product
Guide for additional information. Locate the EICAR.COM file and try to copy or move
it to another location. The scanner reports finding the EICAR test file when it
examines the file.
This file is not a virus — it cannot spread, infect other files, or harm your system. Delete
the file when you have finished testing your installation to avoid alarming other users.
