Since the Deep System Scan and System Scan tasks analyze the entire system,
the scanning may take a while. Therefore, we recommend you to run these tasks on
low priority or, better, when your system is idle.

Antivirus Scan wizard will appear. Follow the three-step guided procedure to complete
the scanning process. For detailed information about this wizard, please refer to
“Antivirus Scan Wizard” (p. 51).
When you run a Custom Scan, the Custom Scan wizard will guide you through the
scanning process. Follow the six-step guided procedure to scan specific files or
folders. For detailed information about this wizard, please refer to “Custom Scan
Wizard” (p. 55).
