How the eTrust AV Plug-In Works

The coexistence utility runs the eTrust AV plug-in to scan the computer for CA Antivirus registry keys and executables at the end of a CA ControlMinder installation and whenever the utility runs, as follows:

1. Reads the following registry key entry values:

   HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\InocIT.Exe\Path
   HKLM\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\eTrustITM\CurrentVersion\Path\Home
   

   If one of the entries returns a value, the plug-in creates the following SPECIALPGM resources of type DCM:

   • FilePathFromRegistry\InoRT.exe
   • FilePathFromRegistry\InoTask.exe
   • FilePathFromRegistry\InocIT.exe
   • FilePathFromRegistry\ShellScn.exe

   This is the default action as defined in the response file.

2. Reads the following registry key entry value:

   HKLM\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\ScanEngine\Path\Engine
   

   If the entry returns a value, the plug-in creates the following SPECIALPGM resource of type DCM:

   FilePathFromRegistry\InoCmd32.exe
   

Note: 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).
