How the F-Secure Antivirus Plug-In Works
The coexistence utility runs the F-Secure Antivirus plug-in to scan the computer for F-Secure Anti-Virus registry keys and files, as follows:

The coexistence utility runs the F-Secure Antivirus plug-in to scan the computer for F-Secure Anti-Virus registry keys and files, as follows:
- Before the CA ControlMinder installation begins the plug-in stops the F-Secure Anti-Virus services.
- When the CA ControlMinder installation completes, the plug-in queries the following registry key for existence:
If successful it extracts the "Path" value designated %PathFromRegistry%.HKLM\SOFTWARE\Data Fellows\F-Secure\Anti-VirusIf the registry key exists, the plug-in:- Reads the value of the Path entry
- Creates the following SPECIALPGM resources of type DCM:
This is the default action as defined in the response file. The eTrust Audit plug-in does not add a trusted program (SPECIALPGM) rule by default.FilePathFromRegistry\fssm32.exe FilePathFromRegistry\fsgk32st.exe
- Whenever the coexistence utility runs, the plug-in:
- Stops the F-Secure Anti-Virus services
- Creates the same SPECIALPGM resources it creates when the CA ControlMinder installation completes (as described earlier in this topic)
- Restarts the F-Secure Anti-Virus services
The response file determines the default action that the coexistence utility performs at prescribed stages (what to do before CA ControlMinder installation, after CA ControlMinder installation, and so on).
