4.1.1.3.1.2 Custom scan
Custom scan is an optimal solution if you wish to specify scanning parameters such as scan targets and scanning
methods. The advantage of Custom scan is the ability to configure the parameters in detail. Configurations can be
saved to user-defined scan profiles, which can be useful if scanning is repeatedly performed with the same parameters.
To select scan targets, select Computer scan > Custom scan and select an option from the Scan targets drop-down
menu or select specific targets from the tree structure. A scan target can also be specified by entering the path of the
folder or file(s) you wish to include. If you are only interested in scanning the system without additional cleaning
actions, select the Scan without cleaning option. Furthermore, you can choose from three cleaning levels by clicking
Setup... > Cleaning.
Performing computer scans with Custom scan is suitable for advanced users with previous experience using antivirus
programs.
4.1.1.3.2 Scan targets
Scan targets window allows you to define which objects (memory, drives, sectors, files and folders) are scanned for
infiltrations. The Scan targets drop-down menu allows you to select predefined scan targets.
By profile settings – Selects targets set in the selected scan profile.
Removable media – Selects diskettes, USB storage devices, CD/DVD.
Local drives – Selects all system hard drives.
Network drives – Selects all mapped network drives.
No selection – Cancels all selections.
A scan target can also be specified by entering the path to the folder or file(s) you wish to include in scanning. Select
targets from the tree structure, which lists all devices available on the computer.
To quickly navigate to a scan target or to directly add a desired target, enter it in the blank field below the folder list.
This is only possible if no targets were selected in the tree structure and the Scan targets menu is set to No selection.
4.1.1.3.3 Scan profiles
Your preferred scan parameters can be saved for future scanning. We recommend that you create a different profile
(with various scan targets, scan methods and other parameters) for each regularly used scan.
To create a new profile, open the Advanced setup window (F5) and click Computer > Antivirus and antispyware >
Computer scan > Profiles.... The Configuration profiles window includes the Selected profile drop-down menu that
lists existing scan profiles and the option to create a new one. To help you create a scan profile to fit your needs, see
the ThreatSense engine parameters setup section for a description of each parameter of the scan setup.
Example: Suppose that you want to create your own scan profile and the Smart scan configuration is partially suitable,
but you don’t want to scan runtime packers or potentially unsafe applications and you also want to apply Strict
cleaning. In the Configuration profiles window, click the Add... button. Enter the name of your new profile in the
Profile name field and select Smart scan from the Copy settings from profile drop-down menu. Then, adjust the
remaining parameters to meet your requirements.
