Configuring actions for viruses and security risks

Throttling options
■

display when a virus or security risk is found. Remediation Options
allow you to configure whether or not you want to be notified before
remediation actions, such as stopping a service, are going to occur.
5 Click OK until you return to the Symantec AntiVirus main window.
To delete a scan
In Symantec AntiVirus, in the left pane, right-click the scan to delete, and
◆
then click Delete.
An important part of scanning for both viruses and security risks is to configure
the actions that you want Symantec AntiVirus to take when it detects a virus or
security risk. You can configure a first action and a second action to take if the
first action fails.
Note: If an administrator manages your computer, and these options display a
padlock icon, you cannot change these options because your administrator has
locked them.
This procedure uses configuring a Full Scan as an example, but you can
configure actions for viruses, security risk items, and categories in the same way
when you configure other scans.
