Limit recursion depth
Unpacking and scanning deeply interlaced archives can require a great deal of computer
time and resources. If this option is enabled, you limit the depth of the scan in multi-
packed archives to a certain number of packing levels (maximum recursion depth). This
saves time and computer resources.
Maximum recursion depth
In order to enter the maximum recursion depth, the option Limit recursion depth must
be enabled.
You can either enter the required recursion depth directly or alter it with the arrow keys
to the right of the input box.
Default values
The button restores the pre-defined values for scanning archives.
12.1.1.3. Archive list
In this display area you can set which archives the Scanner should scan. For this, you
must select the relevant entries.
12.1.1.4. Exceptions
File objects to be omitted for the Scanner
The list in this window contains files and paths that should not be included by the
Scanner in the scan for viruses or unwanted programs.
Please enter as few exceptions as possible here and really only files that, for whatever
reason, should not be included in a normal scan. We recommend that you always scan
these files for viruses or unwanted programs before they are included in this list!
72
In order to find a virus or an unwanted program in an archive, the Scanner
must scan up to the recursion level in which the virus or the unwanted
program is located.
The entries on the list must not result more than 6000 characters in total.
These files are not included in a scan!
The files included in this list are entered in the report file. Please check the
report file from time to time for unscanned files, as perhaps the reason you
excluded a file here no longer exists. In this case you should remove the name
of this file from this list again.
