128 Scanning for viruses and other threats
Configuring scan options
Displaying and customizing a warning message on an
infected computer
When you run a remote scan on a user's computer, you can immediately notify
the user of a problem by displaying a warning message on the infected
computer's screen. You can customize the warning message by including
information such as the name of the threat, the name of the infected file, the
status of the infection, and so on.
The default warning message contains message variables and text. The message
variable is in brackets. Everything outside the brackets is text. You can change
the text and message variables that are in the warning message to suit your
needs. Table 3-4 describes the message variables.
