eTrust PestPatrol Anti-Spyware Corporate Edition 5.x Redistribution (Custom)

Contents

PestPatrol is an anti-malware product, designed to protect a computer system against threats such as adware, spyware and viruses. It performs automated scans of a system’s hard disks, Windows registry and other crucial system areas, and enabled manual scans for specific threats, selected from a very long list of known malicious software

The goal is to create a custom eTrust PestPatrol Anti-Spyware Corporate Edition 5.x distribution file. The article details the contents of some of the distribution files which make this goal possible.

To create a distribution executable, perform the following:

  • Create a folder, for example, PPCL.
  • Put into the folder, PPCL, the following files found in C:\Program Files\Common\Pestpatrol:
exclude.dat
langv5.dat
lfinfo.dat
PestPatrol.bin
ppcl.exe
PPClean.exe
ppcl_122105.ini <---- (see Files section below)
ppctl.dll
ppfile.dat
ppinfo.dat
pploc.dat
PPMCActiveDetection.exe
ppsrindex.dat
runppcl.bat <-- (see Files section below)
  • Create a batch file and place outside of the folder PPCL, ie, update.bat (see Files section below)
  • Create a pestpatrol.sed file and place outside of the folder of PPCL.
  • To update the contents of PPCL and create an executable, run the update.bat file.
