    Hello,

    we're running a script which checks the definition date in the file C:\ProgramData\Symantec\Definitions\VirusDefs\definfo.dat
    Since version 12.1 the file gets no more updated entries. Is there a new file which could be checked?

    i could find the file on XP machine at this location and it keeps updated.

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\12.1.671.4971.105\Data\Definitions\VirusDefs

     

    for Vista or Win 7 search for the filename.

    Thanks!

    We also found it on Win7

    C:\ProgramData\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\12.1.671.4971.105\Data\Definitions\VirusDefs\

     

    maybe better and not dependet on the version

    C:\ProgramData\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\CurrentVersion\Data\Definitions\VirusDefs\
