2. Choosea responsefromtheWhena virus is found list. The area beneath
the list will change to show you additional options for each response.
Your choices are:
• Prompt for user action. Choose this response if you want the
E-Mail Scan module to ask you what to do when it finds a
virus—the module will display an alert message and offer you a
range of possible responses.
NOTE: If you choose Prompt for user action from the list,
clicktheAlerttabtospecify whetheryouwanttheE-MailScan
module to prompt you with a message, a beep, or both.
Select the options you want to see in the alert message. Each of the
checkboxes you select here causes an option button to appear in an
alert message that the module displays when it finds a virus.
Selecting Delete file here, for example, causes a Delete button to
appear in the alert message.
You can choose from these options:
– Clean file. This option tells the module to try to remove the
virus code from the infected file. If you have its reporting
function enabled, it will record a log event each time it
successfully cleans, or fails to clean, an infected file.
NOTE: TheE-MailScanmoduledoesnot support this
option for Lotus cc:Mail v7.x and earlier e-mail systems.
The option will not appear here if you selected Lotus
cc:Mail in the E-Mail Scan Detection page.
– Delete file. This option tells the module to delete the infected
attachment immediately. The module will, however, preserve
the e-mail message it came in.
– Move file. Thisoption tellsthemoduletomovetheinfectedfile
to a quarantine folder. The alert message will display a Move
file to button that allows you to locate a quarantine folder.
– Continue scan. This option tells the module to continue
scanning, butto take no other actions. Ifyou have itsreporting
options enabled, the module records the incident in its log file.
• Move infected files to a folder. Choose this response to have the
module moveinfected filesto a quarantine folder as soon as itfinds
them. The module moves these files to a folder named Infected
located in the Dr Solomon’s Anti-Virus program directory.
