Number of concurrent virus scanner processes
You can limit the number of concurrently running virus scanners using this control. This
will protect the system from overload caused by lots of scanners running in parallel.
A typical example of use is scanning all images for viruses (data
types "image/*"). Opening a typical web page usually involves
opening and scanning several images at the same time. A
missing limit can cause system overload.

Tag filter
Check documents of content type
To remove potentially dangerous tags from HTML documents you can specify in the
following list which file types should be scanned. Specify entries using the format
"maintype/subtype", where an asterisk (*) can be stated as the maintype or the subtype
to match any value (e.g. "*/html"). If a document corresponds to one of the content
types listed here, it will be edited by the tag filter.
This component will scan only those files which have been downloaded via the
virusscanning proxy of SX-GATE. The virusscanning proxy has to be enabled. It is not
possible to scan the contents of encrypted connections, unless the option to break SSL
connections has been enabled.
Hide SCRIPT tag and script handlers
Activate this switch to defang the tag "<script>" as well as script handlers like "onLoad"
or "onClick". This will partly prevent the execution of script languages like JavaScript
and VBScript.
This feature will turn many web sites unusable.
Hide APPLET tag
Activate this switch to defang the tag "<applet>". This tag is used to call Java Applets.
Hide EMBED tag
Activate this switch to defang the tag "<embed>". This tag is used to e.g. include
plugins.
