Boot up each client and press the Access ThinkVantage button/F11 or the Enter
key to enter the Predesktop Area where the mailman.exe file is run on startup
and then run the REMOVEVIRUS package.

Example 2

This example pushes a Quick Fix Engineering update or patch down to client
machines.
1.

Create a directory to hold the script file and patch files, for example:
C:\ADM\PATCHBUILD.

2.

Place the QFE or patch executable in the C:\ADM\PATCHBUILD directory.

3.

Create a file named go.rrs and place the following lines in it but customize the
line that will run and install the Microsoft Quick Fix Engineering or patch.
Since this patch can only be installed in a regular Windows operating system,
this script prevents the install from attempting to run in Windows Professional
Edition.

retryonerror /on 10
InRR.exe
if errorlevel 2 goto ERROR
if errorlevel 1 goto InOS
if errorlevel 0 goto InPE

:ERROR
exit 1

:InOS
REM DISABLE NETWORKING
Netwk.exe /d
patchinstall.exe
REM ENABLE NETWORKING
Netwk.exe /e
msgbox.exe /msg “Patch Installed” /head “Done” /ok
exit 0

:InPE
exit 1

4.

Place go.rrs in C:\ADM\PATCHBUILD directory and run:

apkgmes.exe /key mykey.prv C:\ADM\PATCHBUILD PATCHBUILD

5.

Copy PATCHBUILDYYDDHHMM.ZAP to your mailbox.

6.

The patch will be installed either on next scheduled run of the mailman.exe file
for the client machine or on reboot of the client machine.
