Enabling the Real-time Monitor

The Real-time Monitor watches over your system and detects viruses as they arrive at your computer. Each time you open, copy, save, or move a file, the Real-time Monitor ensures that the real-time scanner performs a quick check of the file. Because it works in the background, it doesn't interfere with your normal daily computing and won't distract you.

In addition, the Real-time Monitor lets you quickly perform PC-cillin commands.

To enable the Real-time Monitor:

  1. Click Start > Programs > Trend Micro PC-cillin 2002 > Real-time Monitor. The Real-time Monitor appears in the system tray (located in the lower-right corner)

  2. Right-click the Real-time Monitor. A pop-up menu appears.

  3. You can choose the following:

  • Startup PC-cillin- Displays the PC-cillin window.

  • Emergency Lock- Sets the Emergency Lock, which immediately halts all network activity.

  • Real-time Monitor- Enables the Real-time Scan function. If there is a check mark beside Real-time Monitor, Real-time Scan is enabled.

  • Configuration- Displays the Settings window.

  • Real-time Status- Displays Real-time scan information, including the pattern file version and the last scanned file.

  • Exit- Disables the Real-time Monitor and asks you if you also want to stop real-time scanning.
