Archive Handling<br />
By default <strong>Avira</strong> Mac Security does not scan archives with the on-access Real-Time<br />
Protection scanner. Archives are containers for files such as documents, pictures or<br />
executable files. Archives can have simple but also very complex structures. Very often<br />
those archived files are also compressed to save disk space. Therefore they are perfect<br />
virus hideouts and infection hubs. If you turn on the scan archives option, those<br />
compressed files are scanned, decompressed and scanned again. Please note that<br />
archives can be quite large sometimes and scanning them for viruses may take a long<br />
time.<br />
By default the search in archives is turned Off.<br />
You may turn on the scanning of archives, by choosing Scan archives.<br />
