Setting Internet mail scan actions

For the Internet mail scan, you can set actions PC-cillin executes when it detects a virus. We recommend you use the default mail scan action setting, Clean. This lets PC-cillin clean any infected files--effectively keeping the file intact while destroying the virus. Any virus scan action PC-cillin executes is recorded as a log entry in the Virus log.

To set an Internet mail scan action:

  1. On the PC-cillin window, click Settings. The Settings window appears.

  2. On the Settings menu, click the Virus Scan link. The menu expands.

  3. Click the Internet Mail Scan link. The Internet Mail Scan screen appears.

  4. On Internet Mail Scan screen, under Scan action, select one of the following virus scan actions from the Action when virus found list:

  • Pass- Record virus infection or malicious files in the Virus log, but take no action.

  • Delete- Remove infected or malicious files (e.g., Trojans, worms, etc.).

  • Clean- (Default) Removes virus code from infected files.

  1. Click Apply.
