Note

Since the Deep System Scan and System Scan tasks analyze the entire system,

the scanning may take a while. Therefore, we recommend you to run these tasks on

low priority or, better, when your system is idle.

When you run a System Scan, Deep System Scan or My Documents Scan, the

Antivirus Scan wizard will appear. Follow the three-step guided procedure to complete

the scanning process. For detailed information about this wizard, please refer to

“Antivirus Scan Wizard” (p. 42).

When you run a Custom Scan, the Custom Scan wizard will guide you through the

scanning process. Follow the six-step guided procedure to scan specific files or

folders. For detailed information about this wizard, please refer to “Custom Scan

Wizard” (p. 46).

12.2.3. Searching for Vulnerabilities

Updates and the passwords to your Microsoft Windows accounts to ensure that your

OS is up to date and that it is not vulnerable to password bypass.

To check your computer for vulnerabilities, click Vulnerability Scan and follow the

six-step guided procedure. For more information, please refer to “Fixing

Vulnerabilities” (p. 221).
