You can either enter the requested recursion depth directly or by means of the right
arrow key on the entry field. The permitted values are 1 to 99. The standard value is
20 which is recommended.
Default values
The button restores the pre-defined values for scanning archives.
Archives
In this display area you can set which archives the System Scanner should scan. For
this, you must select the relevant entries.
Exceptions
File objects to be omitted for the System Scanner
(Options available in expert mode only.)
The list in this window contains files and paths that should not be included by the System
Scanner in the scan for viruses or unwanted programs.
Please enter as few exceptions as possible here and really only files that, for whatever
reason, should not be included in a normal scan. We recommend that you always scan
these files for viruses or unwanted programs before they are included in this list!
Note
The entries in the list must not result in more than 6000 characters in total.
Warning
These files are not included in a scan!
Note
The files included in this list are recorded in the
report file
. Please check the
report file from time to time for unscanned files, as perhaps the reason you
excluded a file here no longer exists. In this case you should remove the name
of this file from this list again.
Input box
In this input box you can enter the name of the file object that is not included in the on-
demand scan. No file object is entered as the default setting.
The button opens a window in which you can select the required file or the required
path.
When you have entered a file name with its complete path, only this file is not scanned
