The product installation does not modify current settings to set the Artemis Sensitivity Level to Very Low.


Issue: With the change in Artemis defaults there are several variables that need to be taken into account when introducing this Repost Package into the environment.Workaround: See McAfee Support KnowledgeBase article KB69397 for information on obtaining the latest McAfee Installation Designer repost that resolves this issue. Issue: VirusScan Enterprise 8.7i packages created with McAfee Installation Designer fail to install on computers running Windows 7 when they are deployed from ePolicy Orchestrator.Here is a list of known issues that we are aware of at production time. The installation of VirusScan Enterprise now disables the Defender feature of Microsoft Windows Vista in order to improve performance of the operating system.Because of this change, the installer has been modified to enable the option only if VirusScan is installed under Maximum Security settings. The on-access scanner memory scan function (Processes on enable) has been modified significantly to make it more comprehensive.This helps save logs that might have been overwritten with the previous “backup previous log only” method. The installation packages for patches and reposts have been upgraded so that the installation log name, created in the McAfeeLogs folder, has a dynamically generated name based on the current date and time of the installation.NOTE: See item #1 under Known Issues for further information about this topic.

Refer to McAfee Support KnowledgeBase article KB53735 for further information on Artemis Technology. The Heuristic network check for suspicious files (known as Artemis) settings for On-Access, On-Demand and Email Scanners are now set to Very Low by default in the installer and in the McAfee Default policy for VirusScan Extension.

Refer to McAfee Support KnowledgeBase article KB68449 for further information on the benefits and cautions in using this new package.
