If default settings are used,
Dr.Web scanner will analyze the structure of selected files to define which of them may be infected, after that the picked-out files are checked using both the virus database and heuristic analyzer. Packed executables are unpacked and scanned. The product recognizes most known archive formats, archives with any nesting level; checks file containers (PowerPoint, RTF, etc.), MS-Office files and message attachments in mailboxes. The scanner automatically attempts to cure a detected infection, Incurable and suspicious files are moved to the quarantine.
SpIDer Guard® is a resident monitor that prevents possible intrusions real time. By default the monitor will be checking files upon opening. Besides, it constantly checks running processes to detect activities typical of viruses. If any a corresponding process is blocked and an alert message is displayed.
In case a computer is already infected and doesn't respond to system calls, Dr.Web console scanner may come in handy. Dr.Web products have exceptional resistance to viruses and can be launched on an infected machine. Moreover, launching the program doesn't require installation and can be started from a removable media (a CD or USB-drive). Automatic updates module establishes a connection with the updating server, downloads and installs add-ons to the virus database and updated components of the anti-virus.
Flexible configuration
Scanning files and applications for viruses and other malware can be performed as an administrator sees fit:
- on-the-fly - as a file from a workstation is written on the server or as a server file is opened on request of a workstation, i.e. while executing a file operation request sent by a workstation;
- on-demand when initiated by an administrator;
- scheduled scan, a schedule can be created to fit particular requirements of your network.
