This issue affects NVC version 5.70 for OS/2 only.

One of the main components in Norman Virus Control is Zanda. Zanda is among other things responsible for installing all new updates, including new virus definition files.

Due to an internal timer error in Zanda, it will no longer install updates to NVC after August 6 2005.

This will have the following implications:
- Attempting to install NVC for OS/2 will fail. The installation will never complete.
- Attempting to update NVC for OS/2 will fail. The updates will be downloaded, but not installed.
