b. Select the
Include subfolders
checkbox to tell the application
to ignore files stored in any subfolders within the folder you
specified in Step a.
NOTE:
Choosing
Include subfolders
causes the
application to ignore only those files stored in the
subfolders themselves. The application will still scan files
stored at the root level of the folder you designate. To
exclude the files at the folder root level, clear the
Include
subfolders
checkbox.
c. Select the
File scanning
checkbox to exclude the item you
specified in the first step from scan operations in which the
application looks for file-infecting viruses. These viruses
usually appear in files in the visible portions of your hard disk.
d. Select the
Boot sector scanning
checkbox to exclude the item
you specified in the first step from scan operations in which the
application looks for boot-sector viruses.
These viruses usually appear in memory or in files that reside
in your hard disk’s boot sector or master boot record. Use this
option to exclude system files, such as COMMAND.COM,
from scan operations.
