Virus Help Denmark


Virus Help Denmark: WatchDog 2.7
On 16 February 2002 Zbigniew Trzcionkowski released version 2.7 of his memory surveillance tool 'WatchDog'. Compared to version 2.5 the following modifications have been made.
  • added checking of some BCPL stuff (which is totally harmless since os37+ anyways).
    • CallGVptr - ROM check
    • EndGVptr - ROM check
    • GlobVecTable - checksumming, that should detect patches of any GV based viri including imaginary ones like GlobVec144 ;) Thanks to Thomas Richter and Holger Hippenstiel for information about GV that helped me a lot...
  • added new tooltype 'NoGlobVec' to skip tests described above - it is already set in the icon as nobody beside me needs these checks!
  • added notification of LIBS:xvs.library
  • added some additional stuff to tc_launch/tc_switch checker
  • changed timing routine
  • ToolTypes: NoSwitch and NoLaunch are no longer debug only :P
  • kicked bonus stuff due to lack of users' interest


The tool uses the xvs.library in order to check every three seconds if there're any known viri in the memory. Further features have been added which you can find in the documentation.

'Watchdog' runs from AmigaOS 2.04 and needs the xvs.library.
