Reference: Configuration options<br />

used to set the behavior of the Web Protection component. (Options available in expert<br />

mode only.)<br />

Scan<br />

Enable Web Protection<br />

If this option is enabled, the Web Protection feature is active.<br />

Enable IPv6 support<br />

If this option is enabled, Internet Protocol version 6 is supported by the Web<br />

Protection.<br />

Drive-by protection<br />

Drive-by protection allows you to make settings to block I-Frames, also known as inline<br />

frames. I-Frames are HTML elements, i.e. elements of Internet pages that delimit an area<br />

of a web page. I-Frames can be used to load and display different web content - usually<br />

other URLs - as independent documents in a sub-window of the browser. I-Frames are<br />

mostly used for banner advertising. In some cases, I-Frames are used to conceal<br />

malware. In these cases the area of the I-Frame is mostly invisible or almost invisible in<br />

the browser. The Block suspicious I-frames option allows you to check and block the<br />

loading of I-Frames.<br />

Block suspicious I-frames<br />

If this option is enabled, I-Frames on the web pages you request are scanned<br />

according to certain criteria. If there are suspect I-Frames on a requested web page,<br />

the I-Frame is blocked. An error message is displayed in the I-Frame window.<br />

Action on detection<br />

You can define the actions to be performed by Web Protection when a virus or unwanted<br />

program is detected. (Options available in expert mode only.)<br />

Interactive<br />

If this option is enabled, a dialog box appears when a virus or unwanted program is<br />

detected during an on-demand scan, in which you can choose what is to be done with<br />

the affected file. This option is enabled as the default setting.<br />

Show progress bar<br />

If this option is enabled, a desktop notification appears with a download progress bar if<br />

a download of website content exceeds a 20 second timeout. This desktop notification<br />

is designed in particular for downloading websites with larger data volumes: If you are<br />

surfing with Web Protection, website contents are not downloaded incrementally in the<br />

Internet browser, as they are scanned for viruses and malware before being displayed<br />

in the Internet browser. This option is disabled as the default setting.<br />
