I just had an idea, but I'm not sure if it will work. Can I download the Kaspersky database and just copy the files into my antivirus database? I'm not sure if the antivirus software programs code their databases to only be read by their own software. Any thoughts?
Impossible. They all use their own format.
bummer, I was really excited that it might work

Yeah, wouldn't it be nice though? Installing AVG free, then adding the Kaspersky database...
Or any database for that matter....geez...that would be the most amazing protection ever....probably redundant, but who cares...it would be like a literal wall where nothign bad could get through!!!

There's a software title that isn't exactly the same thing as mentioned in this thread that does integrate multiple virus scanners to "multi-scan" files called HandyBits VirusScan Integrator.

Have you ever used this, Andavari?

No. It's been around for years and seems like a very silly ideal if you ask me, especially since there's free online virus scanning services like Eset, BitDefender, Microsoft that make that program unnecessary.
