cannot get infected will not be scanned, for instance some plain text files, or some other non-

executable files), including media files (video, audio files - if you leave this box unchecked, it will

reduce the scanning time even more, because these files are often quite large and are not likely to

be infected by a virus). Again, you can specify by extensions which files should always be scanned.

Optionally, you can decide you want to Scan files without extension - this option is on by default,

and it is recommended that you keep it so unless you have a real reason to change it. Files with no

extensions are rather suspicious and should be scanned at all times.

Adjust how quickly scan completes

Within the Adjust how quickly scan completes section you can further specify the desired scanning speed

dependent on system resource usage. By default, this option value is set to user sensitive level of automatic

resource usage. If you want the scanning to run faster, it will take less time but the system resources used

will increase significantly during the scan, and will slow down your other activities on the PC (this option can

be used when your computer is switched on but nobody is currently working on it). On the other hand, you can

decrease system resources used by extending the scanning duration.

Set additional scan reports ...

Click the Set additional scan reports ... link to open a standalone dialog window called Scan reports where

you can tick several items to define what scan findings should be reported:

9.8.2. Specific files or folders scan

The editing interface for Scan specific files or folders is identical to the Whole Computer scan editing dialog.

All configuration options are the same; however, the default settings are more strict for the Scan of the whole

computer:

1 2 ... 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 ... 120 121
