Volume Mounting Options
------------------------
• Select the "Diagnose Disks When Mounted" option to enable the Virex® INIT to automatically diagnose disk volumes as they are mounted.  If a virus or Trojan Horse is found, an alert will appear with a warning message and the virus will not be allowed to infect your machine.  The infected files should be replaced with fresh copies, repaired with the Virex® INIT or repaired with the Virex® application.

• When the "Diagnose Disks When Mounted" option is selected, the "Always" and "Ask First" options determine how a disk is examined.  If "Always" is selected, every disk (that is of the type specified by the Check option, defined below) is automatically examined by the Virex® INIT when mounted.  If "Ask First" is selected, the INIT will ask you whether you wish to Examine or Bypass each disk that is mounted.  A bypassed disk is mounted without being scanned by Virex® INIT.

• The "Check" pop up menu selects the type of disks that the Virex® INIT will scan.  It can be set as follows:

       Option                Meaning
       ------                --------
       Floppies Only     Internal and external floppy
                                 drives only
       Ejectables         Any drive that is capable of
                                 ejecting its disk (such as a 'Bernouilli Box')
       All Volumes       Any volume that is mounted

• When the "Command-. (⌘.) Cancels Scan" option is selected, the Virex® INIT will stop scanning a file, folder or disk if a Command-Period (⌘.) is typed.  If the option is not set, then a scan cannot be cancelled.
