McAfee Virus Definitions 5179 - Latest McAfee Virus Definitions (December 6th, 2007) - More Secure Than Ever

McAfee virus pattern and engine updates Virus definition, or .DAT, files contain up-to-date virus signatures and other information that Network Associates anti-virus products use to protect your computer against the thousands of computer viruses in circulation. Whether it's VirusScan, VirusScan Pro or Internet Security Suite, make sure you have the very latest Internet protection. Network Associates releases new .DAT files regularly to provide protection against the approximately 300 new viruses that appear each month.

To ensure that your anti-virus software can protect your system or network against the latest virus threats, download and
install the latest .DAT files.
The DAT files are compatible with our anti-virus products (McAfee) that use the version 4.3.20 (or later) virus-scanning engine. We recommend that you upgrade to the latest version of the virus-scanning engine for optimal virus detection and cleaning.
