On-demand /MOVE <directory>:
scanning only
Moves all infected files found during a scan to the
specified directory, preserving drive letter and
directory structure.
This option has no effect if the Master Boot Record
or boot sector is infected, since these are not
actually files.
/MOVE*.???:
The scanner will change the extension of infected
files, but not move them. For example, using the
/MOVE*.BAD option will result in any infected files
being simply renamed with the extension .BAD but
not physically moved.
On-demand Disables the tone that sounds whenever the
scanning only scanner finds a virus.
On-demand Disables CTRL-C and CTRL-BREAK during
scanning only scans.
Users will not be able to halt scans in progress with
/NOBREAK in use.
Use this option with /LOG to create a meaningful
audit trail of regularly scheduled scans.
On-demand Skips checking of compressed executables
scanning only created with the LZEXE or PkLite file compression
programs.
Extended
memory This reduces scanning time when you do not need
required. to run a full operation. Otherwise, by default, the
scanner checks inside executable, or
self-decompressing, files by decompressing each
file in memory and checking for virus signatures.
The scanner will still check for modifications to
compressed executables if they contain VirusScan
validation codes.
