The program

EliaShim anti-virus - ViruSafe - designed and programmed by Gabi Schwartz felt very different from other anti-virus products at the time and stood out in its look and feel from the others; something other windows anti-virus producers have been doing ever since to make their anti-virus products more appealing but did not put much time in up to that time.

Strangely, at the time, many DOS versions of antivirus products did have great user interfaces designed.

EliaShim ViruSafe seemed to be the trigger for a lot of "wanna-be" antivirus software to be released, although later versions which were released under the name eSafe Protect did perform great and even got certified; the product has evolved into a relatively good scanner which could surely compete with many others.

EliaShim was acquired by Aladdin Knowledge Systems
