Description
===========

Utility, designed to detect and stop 'Love-Letter'-type viruses. VBS Checker puts itself between the scripts and the windows script machine, so no VBS or Java script viruses will escape the check. 
'VBS Script Executor' was designed to check VBS and Java scripts for trojans. Every new script, run on the PC, will be checked for opening adress book, auto start-up and some other operations, performed by script. Performance of this operations will point out the trojan or virus. VBS Script Executor will prevent scripts from performing these operations and will immediately report to you about trojan or virus.
Powerful heuristic analizer will allow to detect almost all the clones of "Love Letter"- type viruses. Once started, VBS Script Executor will place himself between actual script and your computer's virtual machine, so that no VBS or Java script will escape the through check.
