11.5.2. How to Scan

On the How to scan tab you will find a list of scanning parameters that can be

optionally switched on/off. By default, most parameters are switched on and the

functionality will be applied during scanning. Unless you have a valid reason to change

these settings we recommend to keep to the pre-defined configuration:

is identified during scanning it can be healed automatically if a cure is available

. In case the infected file cannot be healed automatically, or if you decide to

switch off this option, you will be notified upon a virus detection and will have

to decide what to do with the detected infection. The recommended action is

to remove the infected file to the Virus Vault.

· Report Potentially Unwanted Programs and Spyware threats - (switched

on, by default): this parameter controls the Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware

components functionality that allows detection of potentially unwanted

programs (executable files that can run as spyware or adware) and these can

then be blocked, or removed;

· Scan for Tracking Cookies - (switched on, by default): this parameter of the

Anti-Spyware component defines that cookies should be detected during

scanning (HTTP cookies are used for authenticating, tracking, and maintaining
