                   *****  UPDATE INFORMATION VERSION 7.6BN *****

    1. Tested ZTEC76B for VIRUSCAN(tm) 9.21v111  Note that The Zip
       Terminus v7.6BN checks for 460Kb free contiguous conventional RAM
       at program startup.

    2. Modified the The Zip Terminus virus scan option selection table
       in the "VIRUS SCAN DIR/DRIVE" submenu. The available user selected
       options for memory check have been separated and now include:

           C. CHECK MEMORY FOR CRITICAL & STEALTH .....  [     ]
           D. CHECK MEMORY FOR * ALL * KNOWN VIRUSES ..  [     ]

   NOTE: Selection #D sends VIRUSCAN(tm) the /M option which instructs
         scan.exe to check for ALL known viruses which may inhabit memory.
         Turning option selection #D to ON is not recommended if the user
         also runs or makes use of another anti-viral program package which
         does not remove, cipher, hide or otherwise encrypt its own virus
         search strings in memory. Read the VIRUSCAN(tm) documentation for
         more information concerning the SCAN/CLEAN /M option.

   NOTE: The Zip Terminus v7.6BN by default does not send the /M option to
         scan.exe for virus checks performed during extraction or compression.
         The user may add a /M, if appropriate(refer to above), to the Zip
         Terminus configuration table entry #8 if so desired.

   NOTE: Use the Zip Terminus only in concert with McAfee Associates anti-
         viral products for best results.

    3. It is now possible to run scan.exe using only default settings during
       virus checks made in extraction or compression operations. The user may
       enter "NONE" for the ZIPUP/UNZIP VSCAN OPTS configuration table entry
       if so desired. Note that a minimum of /A is recommended here when
       extracting archives of unknown content, installing software, or if a
       file-infecting virus has been found. /CHKHI is also appropriate if
       your machine is equipped with more than 640Kb of RAM.

       The first time startup values for the ZIPUP/UNZIP VSCAN OPTS table
       entry are /A /CHKHI. If you are using an XT machine memory may be
       scanned twice because of the CHKHI switch. The "/CHKHI" option may
       be removed if desired in such cases. Please refer to the VIRUSCAN(tm)
       documentation for a description of /A and /CHKHI

    4. NOTE: You must first toggle F8-VIRUS SCAN to 'ON' before virus
             checking will take place during extraction or compression.
             VIRUSCAN(tm) by McAfee Associates is required.

    5. Added "REDUCTION RATIO" to archive analysis display.

    6. Version 7.6BN has the additional user option of creating MV Zips
       with file source specifications other than *.*

    7. Revised manual path entry procedure.
