Russian anti-virus company Doctor Web has updated its virus databases to version 9.0 in Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite 10.0, Dr.Web Anti-virus 9.0 and 10.0 for Linux, and Dr.Web Anti-virus 10.0 for Mac OS X, as well as in Dr.Web Anti-virus for Unix Servers, Dr.Web Anti-virus for Internet Gateways Unix, Dr.Web Anti-virus for Unix Mail Servers and Dr.Web Anti-virus for Novell Storage Services 6.0.2.9.

The update, which contributes to faster database downloading for all the above-listed Dr.Web products, will accelerate system startups and the launch time of the Dr.Web anti-virus.

The products will utilise the same scanning module (version 7).

Version 9 databases are already being used by Dr.Web Security Space, Dr.Web Anti-virus for Windows 10.0 and the curing utilities Dr.Web CureIt! and Dr.Web CureNet!.

The update, which is 140 MB in size, will be downloaded and installed automatically. Users of Dr.Web for Linux will need to restart the daemon drweb-configd.
