Maximum file size to be scanned
- if included files are present in
the displayed page you can also scan their content even before these
are downloaded to your computer. However, scanning of large files
takes quite some time and the web page download might be slowed
significantly. You can use the slide bar to specify the maximum size of
a file that is still to be scanned with
Web Shield
. Even if the
downloaded file is bigger than specified, and therefore will not be
scanned with
Web Shield
, you are still protected: in case the file is
infected, the
Resident Shield
will detect it immediately.
·
Instant Messaging
- allows you to edit the components settings referring to
instant messaging (
e.g. ICQ, MSN Messenger, Yahoo ...
) scanning.
o
Instant Messaging protection - check this item if you wish that the Web
Shield verifies the on-line communication is virus free. Provided this
option is on, you can further specify which instant messaging application
you want to control - currently
AVG 9 Internet Security
supports the
ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo applications.
