Configuring the Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus Classic
interface
For the Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus application to protect your system, you must
tell it:
• what you want it to scan
• what you want it to do if it finds a virus
• how it should let you know when it finds a virus
• whether you want it to keep track of its actions
A series of property pages in the Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus window controls
the options for each task—click each tab to set up the application for your task.
To give yourself more configuration options, move to the Dr Solomon's
Anti-Virus Advanced interface. Choose Advanced from the Tools menu in
the Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus Classic window.
You can start a scan operation with the options you've chosen at any
point—simply click Scan Now. To save your changes as default scan options,
choose Save As Default from the File menu or click New Scan. To save your
settings in a new file, choose Save Settings from the File menu, name your
file in the dialog box that appears, then click Save.
The settings file you save will have your filename with a .VSC extension. To
learn how to use this file to start a Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus application scan
operation, see
Choosing Where & What options
Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus initially assumes that you want to scan your C: drive
and all of its subfolders, and to restrict the files it scans only to those
susceptible to virus infection
