Latest VGrep

Posted by Virus Bulletin on Dec 23, 2004

The latest version of the virus name lookup tool - VGrep, is now available.

VGrep is a system produced in an attempt to clear up some of the confusion surrounding the naming of viruses. It works by running scanners across a large collection of virus-infected files, and parsing their output into a simple text database.

VGrep allows simple cross-referencing between some of the more popular AV products.
