With the newest patch, OfficeScan 8.0 supports Windows 7.

This is Trend Micro OfficeScan 8.0 SP1 Patch 5

Full readme can be found here:

It’s important to notice that only the following drivers are compatible with Windows 7:

Virus Scan Engine (8.952 or higher)
Virus Cleanup Engine (6.2.1016 or higher)
Anti-rootkit Driver (2.8.1063 or higher)
Common Firewall Driver (NSC) (5.8.1092 or higher)

Virus Scan Engine and Virus Cleanup Engine can be updated from the Active Update server.

Anti-rootkit Driver and the Common Firewall Driver (NSC) are included in this patch.

I haven’t had time to test if this actually works on Windows 7. If anyone has, please feel free to leave a comment. I will test it as soon as I can.

Trend Micro: Rollback of VSAPI Version 9.000 from ActiveUpdate

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Some of might have noticed this, but I’m writing a post about it any way.

Trend Micro is now rolling back the VSAPI 9.000 from ActiveUpdate. Reason: “There have been reports of issues on the following products scanning certain malformed PDF files”.

The version available through ActiveUpdate is now 9.100.1001, this is essentially version 8.952.

The products affected are:
OfficeScan
ServerProtect
Worry-Free Business Security (WFBS)

Earlier, they sent out an advisory about VSAPI 9.000 and problems with Windows NT (think it was OfficeScan 7.3 and ServerProtect). The problems resulted in the Scan Engine being unable to load the pattern files.
