The
Resident Shield active
option allows you to easily switch on/off resident
protection. By default, the function is on. With resident protection on you can further
decide how the possibly detected infections should be treated (removed):
o
either automatically (
Remove all threats automatically
)
o
or only after the user's approval (
Ask me before removing threats
)
This choice has no impact on the security level, and it only reflects your preferences.
In both cases, you can still select whether you want to
Scan for Tracking Cookies.
In specific cases you can switch this option on to achieve maximum security levels,
however it is switched off by default. (
