9.4.3. Cache Server

The Cache Server Settings dialog refers to the cache server process designed to speed up all types of AVG

AntiVirus 2013 scans:

The cache server gathers and keeps information on trustworthy files (a files is considered trustworthy if signed

with digital signature on a trustworthy source). These files are then automatically considered to be safe, and do

not need to be re-scanned; therefore these files are skipped during scanning.

The Cache Server Settings dialog offers the following options for configuration:

Caching enabled (on by default) - uncheck the box to switch off the Cache Server, and empty the

cache memory. Please note that scanning might slow down, and overall performance of your

computer decrease, as every single file in use will be scanned for viruses and spyware first.

Enable adding new files into cache (on by default) - uncheck the box to stop adding more files into

the cache memory. Any already cached files will be kept and used until caching is turned off

completely, or until the next update of the virus database.

Unless you have a good reason to switch the cache server off, we strongly recommend that you keep

the default settings and leave both the options on! Otherwise you may experience a significant

decrease in your system speed and performance.
