Endpoint Protection Administrator Guide Scan Schedule settings Do not perform scheduled scans when a full screen application or game is open Ignores scheduled scans when the user is viewing a full-screen application, such as a movie or a game. Deselect this option if you want scheduled scans to run anyway. Randomize the time of scheduled scans up to one hour for distributed scanning Determines the best time for scanning (based on available system resources) and runs the scan within an hour of the scheduled time. If you want to force the scan to run at the scheduled time, deselect this option. Perform a scheduled Quick Scan instead of a Deep Scan Runs a quick scan of memory. We recommend that you keep this option deselected, so that deep scans run for all types of malware in all locations. Scan Settings Scan settings give advanced control over scanning performance. Scan Settings Enable Realtime Master Boot Record (MBR) Scanning Protects the endpoint against master boot record (MBR) infections. An MBR infection can modify core areas of the system so that they load before the operating system and can infect the computer. We recommend that you keep this option selected. It adds only a small amount of time to the scan. Enable Enhanced Rootkit Detection Checks for rootkits and other malicious software hidden on disk or in protected areas. Spyware developers often use rootkits to avoid detection and removal. We recommend that you keep this option selected. It adds only a small amount of time to the scan. Enable "right-click" scanning in Windows Explorer Enables an option for scanning the currently selected file or folder in the Windows Explorer right-click menu. This option is helpful if the user downloads a file and wants to scan it quickly. Update the currently scanned folder immediately as scanned Displays a full list of files as SecureAnywhere scans each one. If you want to increase scan performance slightly, deselect this option so that file names only update once per second on the panel. SecureAnywhere will still scan all files, just not take the time to show each one on the screen. - 98 -
