[2008] Anti-Virus & FireWall Application -
Hello i have been wondering if instead of using Nortan & Avast! etc...
i could develop my own Anti-Virus program and FireWall. I am not sure
if i am able to make the Anti-Virus because of a lack of a virus database.
Though am i able to get a free one on the internet?
Where then i can syncronize it to the database on the users computer.
How does an Anti-Virus program work? How would i go about starting this project?
Now about the FireWall, would this be much simplar?
Or is it more complex? How does it work? How do i make this?
*Throughout this thread i will still look up my questions on google,
the ones about How it works, but the thing is i want it done in Visual Basic .NET 2008
