up to 20 characters in the upper text box in the Password area, then enter
the exact same combination in the text box below to confirm your choice.

IMPORTANT: The password protection in the VShield scanner is
different from the password protection you can assign to tasks in the
VirusScan Console or to settings in the VirusScan application.
Choosing a password for one component does not assign that
password to the other component—you must choose passwords for
each independently.

property pages. To save your password without closing the Security
Properties dialog box, click
Apply
. If you chose to protect all property
pages in all modules and want to close the dialog box, click OK . To close
the dialog box without saving any changes, click Cancel .

NOTE:
Clicking
Cancel
will not undo any changes you already
saved by clicking Apply .

Once you have protected your settings with a password, the Security module

dialog box (
