There is a risk that a spyware is already lodged in your system, before you even install

BitDefender. This is why it's a very good idea to scan your computer for resident

spywares after you've installed BitDefender. And it's definitely a good idea to fre-

quently scan your computer for spywares.

BitDefender allows four types of on demand scan:

• Immediate scanning - there are a few steps to follow in order to scan your com-

puter for spywares;

• Contextual scanning - right-click on a file or a folder and select BitDefender Anti-

virus v9;

• Drag& Drop scanning - drag and drop a file or a folder over the Scan Activity Bar;

• Scheduled scanning - you can program BitDefender to scan your system for

spywares periodically.

7.2.1. Immediate scanning

To scan your computer for viruses, please follow the next steps:

Step 1/5 - Close all open programs

In order for BitDefender to make a complete scanning, you need to shut down all

open programs. Especially your email-client (i.e. Outlook, Outlook Express or Eudora)

is important to shut down.

Step 2/5 - Make sure that BitDefender knows the latest spywares

Before you let BitDefender scan your computer you should make sure that BitDefender

is up to date with its spyware signatures, since new spywares are found and identified

every day. You can verify when the last update was made in the upper side of the

Update module.
