You can use your created profiles in the scheduler in order to scan the directories you<br />

have defined before; e.g. a special local drive where external data is added frequently<br />

and a network drive which is connected to your PC and has to be checked.<br />

5. Quarantine<br />

If a virus or a suspicious file is found during a scan, the file is moved to the quarantine<br />

depending on the setting. The file is packed into the especially encrypted format<br />

(*.qua) and moved to the quarantine directory INFECTED on your hard disk, so that<br />

no direct access is possible any more.<br />

This directory is located by default in case of Windows 2000/XP at:<br />

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\<strong>Avira</strong>\AntiVir Desktop\INFEC-<br />

TED<br />

For Windows Vista, the directory can be found in:<br />

C:\ProgramData\<strong>Avira</strong>\AntiVir Desktop\INFECTED<br />

Quarantine<br />

The files in this directory can be repaired later in the quarantine manger or they can<br />

be sent to the <strong>Avira</strong> Malware Research Center, if necessary.<br />

You can get to the quarantine administration by starting the <strong>Avira</strong> ControlCenter and<br />

by choosing the Administration > Quarantine.<br />
