Scan archives<br />
Reference: Configuration options<br />
If this option is enabled, then archives will be scanned. Compressed files are scanned,<br />
then decompressed and scanned again. This option is deactivated by default. The<br />
archive scan is restricted by the recursion depth, the number of files to be scanned<br />
and the archive size. You can set the maximum recursion depth, the number of files to<br />
be scanned and the maximum archive size.<br />
Note<br />
This option is deactivated by default, since the process puts heavy demands on<br />
the computer's performance. It is generally recommended that archives be<br />
checked using an on-demand scan.<br />
Max. recursion depth<br />
When scanning archives, the Realtime Protection uses a recursive scan: Archives in<br />
archives are also unpacked and scanned for viruses and unwanted programs. You can<br />
define the recursion depth. The default value for the recursion depth is 1 and is<br />
recommended: all files that are directly located in the main archive are scanned.<br />
Max. number of files<br />
When scanning archives, you can restrict the scan to a maximum number of files in<br />
the archive. The default value for the maximum number of files to be scanned is 10<br />
and is recommended.<br />
Max. size (KB)<br />
When scanning archives, you can restrict the scan to a maximum archive size to be<br />
unpacked. The standard value of 1000 KB is recommended.<br />
Action on detection<br />
You can define the actions to be performed by Realtime Protection when a virus or<br />
unwanted program is detected. (Options available in expert mode only.)<br />
Interactive<br />
If this option is enabled, a desktop notification appears when Realtime Protection<br />
detects a virus or unwanted program. You have the option of removing the detected<br />
malware or accessing other possible virus treatment actions via the "Details" button.<br />
The actions are displayed in a dialog box. This option is enabled as the default setting.<br />
Permitted actions<br />
In this display box you can specify the virus management actions that should be<br />
available as further actions in the dialog box. You must activate the corresponding<br />
options for this.<br />
Repair<br />
Realtime Protection repairs the infected file if possible.<br />
