that aren’t yet in the database will be detected with the same degree of
probability.
To enable the redundant scanning tool,
type
Yes
in the
RedundantScan
line of the profile.
This parameter corresponds to the command line switch
-V[-]
. The
switch
-V
enables and the switch
-V-
disables the redundant scanning
tool.
The redundant scanning tool is recommended if no virus was de-
tected in a normal scan but the system is still behaving strangely (for
example, there are frequent instances where the computer restarts
by itself, unnaturally slows performance from applications etc.) Oth-
erwise, we do not recommend enabling the redundant scanning tool
as it noticeably slows down the scanning rate and increases the
probability of “false alarms”.
5.4. Settings for the cumulative
location to be checked
5.4.1. Cumulative settings
Unlike settings for a separate location to be checked that define scanning
operation for the location defined in a certain
[Object]
section of the profile
(see subchapter 5.3), settings for the cumulative location to be checked or
the cumulative settings define other scanning and performance parameters
for all the
[Objects]
sections of the profile.
General settings are consolidated in several sections of defUnix.prf
(for details refer to Appendix B).
