Virus Scan

Use the Virus Scan entry in the Actions pull-down menu to determine whether files in the archive contain viruses. To use this feature a virus scanner must be configured, as described in the section titled Virus Scanner Configuration. Note that the CheckOut feature also provides optional virus scanning.

The Virus Scan operation performs the following actions:

1. Creates a temporary folder
2. Extracts all files in the current Zip file to the temporary folder
3. Runs the virus scanner against files in the temporary folder
4. Deletes all files in the temporary folder and removes the temporary folder
5. Displays the results of the scan operation in the View window
