Hey guys, i just recently got a job at a computer store, doing tech work etc.
Now the Basic thing we do for customers is a virus scan, a adware removal, a defrag, and a cleaning of the system (with the airgun thingymabober ;D). Anyhow i'm getting tired of putting 3 or 4 cd's into a machine, I;m hoping to make just 1 cd with everything i need on it.

I basically want to set it up so when i run a .bat file on a cd, it will do (in order), virus scan, adware scan, then the defrag. ( I wanna show my boss that i can make this job simple and so he gives me a raise ;D)

-Now the main problem i have is i haven't been able to find a "free" cmd line scanner for anti virus I found this website, " http://www.freebyte....virus/#scanners " but none of them really say they have a command line (where i can execute from dos, they all have gui's) Any suggestions? ** edit: i forgot to mention, for the virus scan i just want to scan and clean it all up (delete all found)

-Then i also had trouble finding a command line adware scanner, or a way where i can click "next" on the gui without interaction (take adaware for example). Any suggestions for that? ** edit: i forgot to mention, also for adware i jsut want to scan and clean it all up (delete all found)

** I found this " http://forums.majorg...dex.php/t-37025 "
So i went and got ad aware pro 6 off the shelf and im gonan fiddle with that so i can do it command line. (or try to)

-Now for the defrag.. I just need it to run defrag and defrag c:/ (same problem with the cutton clicking)


Now don't get me wrong guys' i'm not lazy, it's just the fact that i have to do around 10 machines a day in a 5 hour period, and it gets tedious.
Also keep in mind it's possible for me to take some software off of the shelfs (i think mcafee might have a command line scanner imma take a look) they just write it off as the tech uses it, so if anyone is "leet hax" at dos scripting, and can help me out, i'd really appreciate it, maybe even a reward :D

Thx for reading. (any suggestions are good suggestions.)

Look up windows pe or barts pe. You can create a bootable windows xp cd, just like some live linux distributions. and then you can add on adaware and virus scanners and anything else you like :)

Good suggestion, but i need it to work for windows 98, xp pro and home. :( that one doesn't support 98. :(

Here is a free (as in beer, not as in freedom) virus scanner: http://www.f-prot.co...s/home_use/dos/
Well.. it's free for home users only, but it's a good scanner and might help you.

EDIT: Sorry, you have got to control it through an CLI.. so forget about it.

Most installers and programs have a silent switch, like adaware it's /s i think, you can also modify ini files so they do a silent automated scan with the options you set. To make things easier for the end user different programs have different options, switches etc.

check this proggy out might help ya i haven't used it tho

Looks like a very nice program u made "comsec"
if u have it complete thk i could get a copy to test out.
thx and "keep up the great work"

[Kenny]

yeah no problem... once i have the info to complete the ME paths to the Defrag mmc , Cleanmgr and scandisk...i will upload

or if anyone has the paths please post

am not sure if the WIN98 path will be the same for ME ?

[nuorder]

for an AV you can use mcafee commandline as you mentioned
its fast, free, no setup and mcafee do alright when it comes to detecting most viri

ftp.nai.com/CommonUpdater
get sdat--.exe and use /e to unpack it

the scanner and latest definitions are all included in that file

[WeeDMoNKeY]

Man comsec, that thing is PIMP, that's EXACTLY what i need, is there anyway you can add a virus scanner or an ad aware tool, if you can't thats utterly alright, but this thing owns, i don't have the exact path for windows me : ( sorry. and skitz im gonna take a look at that program, thansk everyone this is going to make my life MUCH easier as a tech. ooo maybe comsec you could add "hijackthis" as an option also ;D you sexy man you ;D I was thinking you could use stinger made by mcafee, but the problem is it doesn't find enough virus's, only around 50ish, not to mention it doesn't scan for ago bot or "geobot". Anyhow this is awsome, i hope you can add the other stuff :D thanks for helping out guys.

[Kenny]

the av or adware ...are going to be seperate programs that you will have yourself..

provide me with a path to them and i will add them to it... (ie) if its on your cd the path will be something like.... av12.exe

and place all the tools in the same directory with the program i made

run all from the 1 program ;)

btw...why not use Panda's online scanner ? also

http://www.pandasoft...com/activescan/

just waiting for the ME path's to complete.... so its down to you to track them down !!

EDIT (told that the paths to XP PRO and HOME are the same
and WIN98/ME are also the same path to Tools)anyone confirm this

prog will be ready then

[WeeDMoNKeY]

I could use an online scanner, but the fact that it takes like triple the amount of time to scan. I use www.sarc.com regularly, it's not to bad. But i prefer one that i can put on the machine.

If you could incorporate that, that would be cool. It helps me get rid of half the crap these peopel have in startup.

Or adaware with it also, with these command lines,
http://forums.majorg...dex.php/t-37025

I think it would be
I can do this using a bat file: (i THINK this is right, but i also think is might be wrong, it doesn't seem to scan properly.... i included the adaware that im using so you can take a look at it) the log is included to just check the log folder, it doesnt seem to scan stuff :/

C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-aware 6\Ad-aware.exe "C:\" +L:"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-aware 6\Logs\" +a +1 +R:"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-aware 6\reflist.ref" +S +P:"C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-aware 6\safeprefs.ini"

I dunno it's kind a gibbled, heh anyhelp would be cool witht eh adaware (it doesnt need to be silent or whatnot, i dont mind a window open, i jsut awnt it to be fully automated and for it to run, scan everything, delete all found, then close, (and make a log of what it deleted and such).

@comsec im pretty sure xp pro and home have the same line to defrag.

I'm still not sure about the best virus scanner, i've been using this, but it only scans 50ish virus's http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/ , its crap, right now im going to take a look into the one nuorder mentioned. ill leave an update on how it goes.

So we have defrag covered : D (or most of it, just need windows ME path's) just ad aware and virus scan, ill update in about 30mins ish once i'm done with this tool.

Thx again guys, this is awsome : D

**edit
wow, this thing works GREAT, sdat4383.exe /e
then
" scan.exe /ad /all /clean /report vreport.txt "
Sometimes it's saying "file blah could not be opened" on my machine, i dunno what's causing it, but i think it's doing it's job properly.

good one nuorder

This is a worthy project, but i am concerned that you will be using crappy software.

I have bad experiences with The Tasty Panda, stinger and all the other free AV's.

SpySweeper is the best for adware, there are papers about it. It is about ten times better than Adaware and Spybot S&D.

I know like Norton Corporate Edition or maybe Enterprise Edition has the ability to make 4 floppy disks with the latests virus defs. I think you have to boot off the floppies, I haven't really messed with it. I swear by Norton because Symatic has the largest budget for R&D.

I am sure you can pick up a "trial copy" from suprnova.org.

Peace out
