Action For Concerning Files - AVIRA ANTIVIR SERVER FOR WINDOWS User Manual

Reference: Configuration options
Note
When files are executed on network drives, they are scanned by the Guard irrespective of
the setting for the Network Drives option. In some cases files on network drives are
scanned while being opened, even though the Network Drives option is disabled. Reason:
These files are accessed with 'Execute File' rights. If you want to exclude these files or
even executed files on network drives from scanning by the Guard, enter the files in the
list of file objects to be excluded (see: Guard::Scan::Exceptions).
Enable caching
If this option is enabled, monitored files on network drives will be made available in the
Guard's cache. Monitoring of network drives without the caching function is more
secure, but does not perform as well as the monitoring of network drives with caching.

10.2.1 Action for concerning files

Action for concerning files
You can define the actions to be carried out by Guard when a virus or unwanted program
is detected.
Extended terminal server support
If this option is enabled, a dialog window appears during the on-access scan when a virus
or unwanted program is detected in which you can choose what is to be done with the
file concerned.
repair
Guard repairs the infected file if possible.
rename
Guard renames the file. Direct access to these files (e.g. with double-click) is therefore no
longer possible. The file can be repaired at a later time and renamed again.
Quarantine
Guard moves the file to the quarantine folder. The file can be recovered from quarantine
manager if it has an informative value or - if necessary - sent to the Avira Malware
Research Center. Depending on the file, further selection options may be available in the
Quarantine Manager.
delete
The file will be deleted. This process is much faster than "overwrite and delete".
ignore
Access to the file is permitted and the file is ignored.
overwrite and delete
Guard overwrites the file with a default pattern before deleting it. It cannot be restored.
Deny access
Access is denied to the file. Guard logs the detection to the report file if the report
function is activated. In addition, the Guard writes an entry in the Event log, if this
option is enabled.
