Scanning inbound instant message attachments
By default, scanning of instant message attachments is enabled via the
Scan
inbound instant message attachments

When this option is enabled, VirusScan automatically scans and attempts to clean
inbound infected instant message attachments for most popular instant messaging
clients, including the following:
MSN Messenger 6.0 or later
Yahoo Messenger 4.1 or later
AOL Instant Messenger 2.1 or later
NOTE

instant message attachments.
If an inbound instant message attachment is infected, VirusScan performs the
following steps:
