Welcome to PC-cillin
Welcome to PC-cillin 2000, Trend Micro’s award-winning antivirus software.
Here’s what PC-cillin will do “straight out of the box”:

Here’s what you can do with just the click of a button:
• Scan every file on your system and clean any infected files
• Scan any file from Windows Explorer or My Computer by right-clicking the file icon
• Scan floppy diskettes and clean any infected files
• Check all of your Word and Excel document(s) for macro viruses

message attachments as they are being downloaded from the POP3 email server.
• Manually scan message attachments in your local Outlook 97/98/2000 folders
No Limits
Of course, if you’re a person who likes to customize your software, there is no limit to the Scan tasks you can
configure PC-cillin to perform.
You can “set and forget” as many tasks as you see fit. For each task, you can select the file types you want to
scan for viruses, the action PC-cillin will take upon finding a virus (Clean the infected file, Delete it, Quar-
antine it, Pass it, or Rename / Deny Access to it), and other program details.
Scan Engine
Viruses are detected using Trend’s 32-bit, multi-threaded scan engine and a process called pattern matching.
In addition to catching known viruses, PC-cillin detects and intercepts previously unknown polymorphic, or
mutation, viruses.
MacroTrap
Additional layers of protection come from MacroTrap™, Trend’s macro virus scanning engine, which de-
tects and removes both known and unknown macro viruses.
