Right-click scanning

You can also launch the On-demand scanner by right-clicking a file

system object in Windows Explorer or on the desktop, for example, and

then selecting Scan for viruses from the menu.

The Command line scanner

The Command line scanner is an alternative to the GUI-based scanner

and offers the possibility of running batch jobs and other scanning tasks

from the command line. The Command line scanner is a good

alternative for those familiar with this environment.

The command line scanner has the same basic functionality as the

menu-driven scanners and is not dependent on any other modules. It

can also be run from batch files.

Starting the Command line scanner

1. From the DOS prompt, go to the directory where the Virus &

Spyware Protection application resides (the default location is

...\norman\nvc\bin):

2. The syntax is:

nvcc [drive]:[path] [/parameters] [Enter]

A space must precede each parameter that you use.
