megaISO - multiboot recovery CD, that contains a set of useful programs and utilities to help you in restoring your non-bootable system, deleting viruses, preparing clean system to OS installation and so on.
After a second update release it has passed enough time to identify new bugs :) Because I was not informed about them, I want to concentrate my attention on improving the existing functionality.
IMO, the primary task is anti-virus databases update. So, we have :) Anti-virus databases update for AVZ and Clamwin. The main difference of this update from earlier ones is that You are able to update the databases when it is needed (just download the new bases and put them into the appropriate folders).
It's recommended to use this update with the latest version of megaISO.
To get the latest version of megaISO You have to:
1. Download and unpack megaISO.
2. Download the first update and unpack it.
3. Download the second update and unpack it.
4. Copy "megaISO.iso" to "megaISO Update" folder.
5. Run CMD file.
6. Wait :)
7. You'll have new file "megaISO_upd.iso" then.
8. Copy "megaISO_upd.iso" to "megaISO Update_2" folder.
9. Rename "megaISO_upd.iso" to "megaISO.iso" :)
10. Run CMD file.
11. Wait :)
12. You'll have new file "megaISO_upd_2.iso" then
To update anti-virus databases, you must do the following:
1. Rename "megaISO_upd_2.iso" to "megaISO.iso". Again :)
2. Copy "megaISO.iso" to "megaISO Antivirus" folder.
3. Copy updated virus databases to appropriate folders.
4. Double-click on "make_antivirus.cmd" and wait :)
5. You'll have new file "megaISO_antivirus.iso" then.

My Mistake!!!
Well I guest working 14hrs and then trying to get this all done was a mistake :) ...I figured I would get a fresh start today and try again from scratch with all the steps... it worked perfect and I am booting the CD as I type this... sorry for false report and thanks again...
too many steps
too many steps.Looking for the final ISO file
At least thank him for the excellent work!!!
This work is incredible and frankly the first two updates are so easy that it's childs play due to his excellent work and instructions...
awesome software but
This cd has made my life so easy but i guess it's time to update the megaiso hiren boot cd it way to outdated. and their are new tools that should be integrated.
anyways thank u so much.
