This is a new standalone antivirus scanner from Symantec, released as a tool to build bootable PE3 iso's or USB's, complete with Network Card Drivers, the ability to add drivers and NBRT.exe with new VirusDefs included, it can also update online. Quite a nice little build and it automatically connects to internet, All it needs is a replacement Desktop Manager and some tinkering and I have a new toy to play with. Since it already ran on PE3 and I was looking for a replacement for my NortonPrescan.script which goes back to the PEBuilder days, This was a great candidate to build into a script.

The only drawbacks I find to this program;
It will not update it's VirusDefs to Ram
It puts it's downloaded VirusDefs on HD:\NBRT\
and also writes a pagefile to HD:\NBRTPage.sys
Immediately writing to a HD on boot just to run a program is not something I want to
do, especially if I want to recover data from that same drive after disinfection.

My old script, NortonPrescan.script does not write to HD, will update to RAM, and also
has a good detection rate, But it's based on Norton 2004, If I get requests to publish such a script, I just might do so if enough people request it, It's just a much simpler and safer way of scanning, I haven't done any side by side comparisons on the two, but they do both seem to detect most of the same virus'

Other than those drawbacks it does have a nice interface, it displays VirusDefs date
and is quite good at detection. Also Let me take a moment to thank Jamal for his tutorial which spawned this script and I also linked his tutorial for NBRT into the script.
Also thanx to Nuno for his advice, encouragement, and expertise.

I am posting the contents of NBRT.script in the hopes of getting some feedback related to x64 compatability, I wrote code hopefully to be compatible with x64 but since I have no 64 bit machines available to me, I will have to rely on Winbuilder community.

Anyway, Enough Said, Here it is, and Happy Virus-Hunting Winbuilder Community!

Hi RoyM, thank you for the script

Pasting script in forum is problematic, can you please upload file to http://www.mediafire.com/ (free, no registration required) or other free service? Then post the link for download here. Thank you again

The thanks and credits goes to you RoyM also for this magnificent script and this amazing hard work, as amalux said it would be nice to upload the script to mediafire, so to make sure when we copy it, it doesn't have any missing or misplaced letters that would affect the script as a whole. I repeat my thanks to you, very well done. a masterpiece.

This is the link to the Norton 2011 Rescue USB tutorial HERE, so for readers have quick access to the original subject.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Roy,

It seems that the forum skin is unable of breaking long lines and since you've kindly made available a download link, I've took the liberty of removing the script code to keep this topic readable.


Also, temporary hosts are unreliable so I've promoted you to the status of .script developer that allows you to host files on our site, along with many other tools made available to help you share scripts in our community.

Given the quality of your work, I believe this is a justified decision.

Welcome to our group!
