I'd like to have code that allows me to extract the virus definitions from Symantec's Norton Antivirus data files, from McAfee's data files, from NOD32's data files and signatures from Spysweeper. I would like to and use the definitions to scan individual files from my own app and to combine the signatures into more complete files for these antivirus applications to use.
The code should be written in Visual Basic or VB.Net,
