About VGrep
'That which we call a rose, By any other name would smell as sweet.'
-- Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
Anyone who has had any experience of the anti-virus world will know that a single virus can have several different names
- anti-virus vendors are not obliged to conform to any naming conventions, nor do they tend to do so.
VGrep is a system designed to help clear up some of the confusion surrounding the naming of viruses.
It works by running scanners across a large collection of virus-infected files, and parsing their output into a simple text database.
With thanks to...
The VGrep database is currently maintained by Dmitry Gryaznov, Senior Manager, Advanced Security Research, McAfee Security, and without his help, this tool would not exist in its current up-to-date form.
VGrep was originally created by Ian Whalley.
