McAfee 5 manual Using McAfee VirusScan, Viewing Activity Logs

Getting Started with McAfee Internet Security 5.0

Using McAfee VirusScan

McAfee Internet Security uses McAfee VirusScan to address virus-related problems you may encounter through the Internet. This feature allows you to set how to perform a virus scan operation on your computer; what to do if a virus is found; and how it should alert you once the virus is detected. You can also direct VirusScan to keep a record of actions performed on your computer. For more information, see McAfee VirusScan Home Edition on page 49.

Viewing Activity Logs

McAfee Internet Security now provides a list of activities that an Administrator can view via the Activity Logs feature. This list is generated based on his preferred security and privacy settings for himself and for other profiled users he created. Anything from dates and time that a user logged on, to PC maintenance, and violation (e.g., a user attempting to pass a credit card number) can be viewed at the single click of a button.

The Administrator can print, save or clear this list which contain any of the following:
