Advanced schedule options
Run on computer startup if task has been missed – if you schedule the task to run at a specific
time, this option will ensure that the scan will be performed subsequently in case the computer is
turned off at the scheduled time.
Run even if computer is in low power mode – the task should be performed even if the computer
is running on battery power at the scheduled time.
On the Settings tab you will find a list of scanning parameters that can be optionally switched on/off. By
default, most parameters are switched on and the functionality will be applied during scanning. Unless you
have a valid reason to change these settings we recommend that you keep the predefined
configuration:
Heal / remove virus infection without asking me (on by default): if a virus is identified during
scanning it can be healed automatically if a cure is available. If the infected file cannot be healed
automatically, the infected object will be moved to the Virus Vault.
Report potentially unwanted programs and spyware threats (on by default): check to activate
scanning for spyware as well as for viruses. Spyware represents a questionable malware category:
even though it usually represents a security risk, some of these programs can be installed
intentionally. We recommend that you keep this feature activated as it increases your computer
security.
Report enhanced set of potentially unwanted programs (off by default): mark to detect extended
packages of spyware: programs that are perfectly ok and harmless when acquired from the
manufacturer directly, but can be misused for malicious purposes later. This is an additional measure
