      CENTRAL POINT ANTI-VIRUS FOR DOS VERSION 2.X SIGNATURE UPDATE

************************************************************************

If you haven't had the time to switch to Norton AntiVirus, now's the
time to act.  And we would like to extend to you the opportunity to 
upgrade your current Central Point Anti-Virus products at a very 
special price.  This offer also allows you to upgrade to the Norton 
AntiVirus products for either DOS and Windows 3.x, or the exciting 
new version of Norton AntiVirus for Windows 95.
 
Key new benefits in Norton AntiVirus for Windows 95, version 2.0 
include:
     * LiveUpdate - your one-button access to free software updates
       and monthly virus definitions
     * Striker - our next generation polymorphic virus engine
     * Repair Wizard - a wizard to guide you through the virus cleanup 
       process before you risk transmitting an infected file to
       someone else

And all of the Norton AntiVirus products are submitted to the NCSA for
certification and supported with free, regular monthly updates.

This offer will be available until the end of this year (12/31/96), 
because we want to ensure that your virus protection continues 
uninterrupted.

This will be the last Central Point Anti-Virus update that we will
publish, so we urge you to take advantage of this opportunity to
upgrade.

************************************************************************

The self-extracting archive file named V2SIG.EXE is for users of Central
Point Anti-Virus Version 2.0 and later.  It contains updated files that
include the latest virus signatures available.

Due to an increase in polymorphic viruses, this signature update includes
both an updated signature file SMARTSIG.CPS, and an updated executable file
CPAV.EXE. The executable file has been updated for detection and removal
of the new polymorphic viruses.  No new features have been added.

To update your files, you must have CPAV Version 2.0 or later on your
hard drive.

1. Download the self-extracting archive file as V2SIG.EXE to a temporary
   directory on your hard drive.


2. Run V2SIG.EXE to extract the update files, UPDATE.EXE, CPAV.UDT,
   SMARTSIG.CPS, VIRULIST.CPS, and the README.TXT file.


3. From the temporary directory run UPDATE.  Update asks where your
   current version of CPAV exists.  Type the path name.  The files
   in the current working CPAV directory will be updated automatically.

   In the process of updating your current copy of CPAV, the old CPAV.EXE
   is renamed to the filename CPAV.OLD.


4. Run the Central Point Anti-Virus program.

5. Delete the update files from the temporary directory.
