If you suspect that your computer is infected, you can
run three types of computer scans manually to prevent
virus infections on your computer.
You can run the following types of computer scans:
Quick Scan
Full System Scan
Scans the important locations of
your computer that the viruses
and other security threats often
target.
Quick Scan takes less time to
scan than a Full System Scan
because this scan does not scan
your entire computer.
Scans your computer for all
types of viruses and security
threats.
Full System Scan performs a
deep scan of your computer to
remove viruses and other
security threats. It checks all
boot records, files, and running
processes to which the user has
access. Consequently, when you
run a Full System Scan with
administrator privileges, it scans
more files than when you run it
without administrator privileges.
w Full System Scan scans all
the local drives, mapped network
drives, and removable drives
except floppy drives. You can
also minimize and run a Full
System Scan in the background.
