Virus scan statistics
|
You can find general information about the operation of each virus scan task in the main window of the program. To review this information, select a task name in the Scan section of the main program window.
The right-hand part of the main window contains information in the Statistics section about how many objects have been scanned while performing this task, how many malicious objects it has detected, and how many objects have not been processed. In addition, the time that the scan was last run is displayed here.
To view detailed information, left-click anywhere in the section. You will see a complete report on the results of the last scan, if the scan is already complete, or about the progress of the task.
The upper portion of the report contains composite statistics on the results of the task, as well as information on the number of objects scanned, the number of malicious objects detected, and the number of objects to be processed. Information is also displayed on the time that the last task started and ended and how much time was required to complete the scan.
Basic information on scan results is grouped by tab in the middle of the window.
- All dangerous objects detected while scanning are listed on the Detected tab. Here you will find the full path to the location of each object and the status assigned to it by the program. If the type malicious program that infected the object was successfully identified, it will be assigned the appropriate status. For example, virus, Trojan, etc. If the type of malicious program cannot be exactly established, the object is assigned the status suspicious. Next to the status, the action that was taken for the object is specified (detected, not found, disinfected).
In order to remove disinfected objects from this tab, uncheck
Show neutralized objects.
- The Events tab displays a complete list of events that have arisen during the scan. The events can have the following statuses:
- Informative event (for example: object not processed: skipped by type).
- Warning (for example: a virus is detected).
- Note (for example:
archive is password-protected).
As a rule, the informative messages are for reference only. You can disable display of informative messages. To do so, uncheck
Show non-critical events.
- Scan statistics appear on the appropriate tab. You will find the total number of objects scanned, and separate columns indicating how many objects out of the total number scanned are archives, how many are dangerous, how many have been disinfected, how many sent to Quarantine, etc.
- The settings used for the scan with are displayed on the Settings tab. Use the Edit settings link to quickly configure the task.
In addition, you can configure advanced settings for scan tasks:
- Establish a scan task priority ranking to be used when the processor is weighed down. The default setting for
Do not suspend scan if CPU is utilized by other programs is unchecked. With this feature, the program tracks the load on the processor and disk subsystems for the activity of other applications. If the load on the processor increases significantly and prevents the user's applications from operating normally, the program reduces scanning activity. This increases scan time and frees up resources for the user's applications.
- Enable the Do shut down the computer when finished feature. This feature is helpful if you run virus scans at the end of the work day and do not want to wait for it to finish.
However, this feature requires a few additional steps: before launching the scan, you must disable password requests for objects being scanned, if enabled, and enable automatic processing of dangerous objects. The program's interactive features will be disabled. The program will not ask questions that require an answer from you, which interrupts the scanning process.
To turn off the computer after completing the scan, check the appropriate box.
If any errors occur during the scan, try running it again. If the next attempt produces the error again, save the report file using the Save as button, and contact support.
