Info

Kaspersky PURE 2.0 The following file types can be set for scan: ► All files — File Anti-Virus analyzes all files irrespective of their name (for example, “press-release”) or extension (for example, «.doc»). ► Files scanned by format — File Anti-Virus scans the internal header of a file to determine the file format (.txt, .doc, .exe, etc.). If the analysis shows that such file format cannot be infected, the file is not scanned and is returned to the user. If a file format is infectable, such file is scanned for viruses; ► Files scanned by extension — File Anti-Virus scans files respective of their extension (for example, files with the extensions .com, .exe, .sys, .bat, .dll and etc). The file format is determined based on its extension. A file extension helps the user and software define the type of data in the file. When selecting the file type scanned by File Anti-Virus, consider the following peculiarities. For example, the cyber criminal can send a virus to your computer with a txt extension, though in reality such file can be executable, renamed into a txt-file. If the Files scanned by extension option is selected, then during scan such file will be skipped. If the Files scanned by format option is selected, then in spite of the extension File Anti- Virus will analyze the file header. In the result of scan it will become clear that the file has an exe-format. Such file will be scanned for viruses. 5 | 17
