Advanced Heuristic Analysis and Detection (AHeAD)
enable AHeAD
Your AntiVir program contains a very powerful heuristic in the form of AntiVir AHeAD
technology, which can also detect unknown (new) malware. If this option is enabled, you
can define how "aggressive" this heuristic should be. This option is enabled as the default
setting.
Low detection level
If this option is enabled, slightly less unknown malware is detected, the risk of false
alerts is low in this case.
Medium detection level
This option is enabled as the default setting if you have selected the use of this heuristic.
High detection level
If this option is enabled, significantly more unknown malware is detected, but there are
also likely to be false positives.
10.1.7 Report
The Scanner has a comprehensive reporting function. You thus obtain precise
information on the results of an on-demand scan. The report file contains all entries of
the system as well as alerts and messages of the on-demand scan.
Note
To enable you to establish what actions the Scanner has performed when viruses or
unwanted programs have been detected, a report file should always be created.
Reporting
Off
If this option is enabled, the Scanner does not report the actions and results of the on-
demand scan.
Default
When this option is activated, the Scanner logs the names of the files concerned with
their path. In addition, the configuration for the current scan, version information and
information on the licensee is written in the report file.
Advanced
When this option is activated, the Scanner logs alerts and tips in addition to the default
information.
Complete
When this option is activated, the Scanner also logs all scanned files. In addition, all files
involved as well as alerts and tips are included in the report file.
Note
If you have to send us a report file at any time (for troubleshooting), please create this
report file in this mode.
