Using Specialized Scanning Tools
– Enable macro and program file heuristics scanning.
Choose this option to have the utility use both types of
heuristics scanning. Dr Solomon’s Software recommends that
you use this option for complete anti-virus protection.
 NOTE: The utility will use heuristic scanning techniques
only on the file types you designate in the Program File
Extensions dialog box. If you choose to scan All files,it
will use heuristic scanning for all file types.

interrupted from the point at which it left off. Select Resume scanning
from where ScreenScan left off.
Ifyou donot select thischeckbox, the utility will begin itsscan operation
again from the root level of the first drive you specified as a scan target
eachtime your screensaver starts to run. Thiscouldmeanthat the utility
will scan some parts of your system repeatedly but will miss other parts
completely.

priority control toward High to give a higher priority for system
resources and time to the ScreenScan utility than to other
