Using the Command-Line Scanner
Choosing the options
3
/MOVE
<DIR>
None.
Move any infected files to a quarantine location as specified.
When the program moves an infected file, it replicates the full
directory path for the infected file inside the quarantine
directory, so that you can determine the original location of
the infected file.
This option has no effect if the Master Boot Record or boot
sector is infected, because these are not files.
See
If the scanner detects a virus
on page 40
for more
information.
/NOBEEP
None.
Do not issue a tone when the scan ends.
By default, a tone is issued at the end of a scan if an infection
is found.
/NORENAME
None.
Do not rename an infected file that cannot be cleaned.
For information about renaming, see
Table 4-1 on page 40
.

/PAUSE
Do not use
with report
options.
Enable a screen pause.
When the screen is full of messages, the prompt “
Press
any key to continue”
appears. Otherwise, by default,
the screen fills and scrolls continuously without stopping.
This allows the scanner to run without stopping on
computers with multiple drives or that have severe
infections.
We recommend that you do not use this option with the
report options,
/REPORT
,
/RPTALL
,
/RPTCOR
, and
/RPTERR
.
/PLAD
On NetWare
volumes only.
Preserve the last-accessed time and date for files that are
scanned.
Some software (such as used for creating backups or
archives) relies on a file’s last-accessed time and date to work
correctly. If you set this option, the scanner resets that time
and date to their original values after scanning the file.
