what is DAILYDAT.ZIP. version is always 4100.. I was told by McAfee directly to use the dat-42xx.zip's off the ftp for the command line scanner. They said they do not support DAILYDAT. we use the mcafee SDK to create our own command line scanner around their engine so we control structure of output, we then do dat updated via the dat-422x files. here you can see the debug output from our update script. this is the recommended way from their development team, since the ini is only about 700 bytes, and you dont have to rely on remote date/file size to do your testing if the new dat should be downloaded. also, update.ini always contains the latest software version across platform, and provides MD5 hashes, so you can integrity check your downloads... i simply use Config::IniFiles to parse the ZIP section and pull DATVersion, FilePath, FileName, and MD5 out here is debug output from my update script, with 3 different scenarios.
