A database for an antivirus? Antivirus databases are not needed in ComputerCraft as you can lock down anything that might be harmful to a computer through custom function remapping. The only reason databases are used in real computer antivirus software is because viruses generally come in a compiled form and therefore they have to be able to recognize harmful code.
