This is a general request for assistance. I am gathering materials for a major research project on the history of Anti-Virus Software (AVS) and would appreciate information on resources for this endeavor. Recent scholarship has focused on software generally or the histories of specific companies. In looking at a genre of software, my project will examine the special role that AVS companies have in the software ecosystem between operating systems, users, and programmers through a critical examination of the history of AVS producers. Any assistance you can provide in obtaining access to useful records or directing me towards knowledgeable individuals would greatly assist my endeavor.
