Using Quarantine

Many VirusScan components allow you to move infected files to a quarantine folder. This moves infected files from areas where they can be accessed and enables you to clean or delete them at your convenience.

How to managing quarantined files

This list describes the options available to you when managing quarantined files:

nAdd. Select this option to browse for and quarantine a suspected file.

nClean. Select this option to remove the virus code from infected file. If the virus cannot be removed, it will notify you in its message area.

nRestore. Select this option to restore a file to its original location. Please note, this option does not clean the file. Make sure the file is not infected before selecting Restore.

nDelete. Select this option to delete the infected file. Make sure to note the file location so you have a record of the deleted files. You will need to restore deleted files from backup copies.

WARNING

Choose Delete only if a backup copy of the file is available. To learn more about how to restore Windows system files, please visit www.avertlabs.com.

nSubmit quarantined files to AVERT via WebImmune: Select this option to submit new viruses to McAfee’s investigative labs.

NOTE

McAfee is committed to providing you with effective and up-to-date tools you can use to protect your system. To that end, we invite you to report any new viruses, Java classes, ActiveX controls, or dangerous web sites that VirusScan does not now detect.

If you have found what you suspect to be a new or unidentified virus, send the infected file to McAfee Labs Anti-Virus Emergency Response Team for analysis, using WebImmune. For more information about WebImmune, please visit www.webimmune.net.
