Using Faronics Anti-Virus
7. Specify settings in the Scanning node:
•
Scanning node>Scan Settings pane- Select the following for Quick scan, Deep System scan
and Custom Scan:
Faronics Anti-Virus provides three types of scans:
•
Quick Scan - scans the commonly affected areas of your computer. This is shorter in duration
than the Deep System Scan. Quick Scan also uses less memory than the Deep System Scan.
•
Deep System Scan - performs a through scan of all areas of the computer. The time taken for
the scan depends on the size of your hard drive.
•
Custom Scan - performs a scan based on the selections made in the Policy Details dialog.
For each type of scan, select the following options (some options may be grayed out depending on
the type of scan):
•
Enable rootkit detection - detects if the computer is infected with a rootkit.
•
Scan inside of archives - scans the contents of a zip file. Select for the scan to include archive
files, such as .RAR and .ZIP files. When a .RAR file is found to contain an infected file, the
.RAR file will be quarantined. If a .ZIP file is found to contain an infected file, the infected file
is quarantined and replaced by a .TXT file with text indicating that it was infected and that it
has been quarantined.
•
Scan at a lower priority - select to operate Faronics Anti-Virus at a lower priority, allowing
you to continue working with other programs without decreased performance. It is good to
select this option for scheduled scans that occur during times of regular use of the computer.
•
Exclude removable drives (e.g USB) - excludes the removable drives from the scan process.
Any external hard disks, USB drives etc will not be scanned.
•
Scan cookies - scans the cookies saved on the workstation.
