19.3.5. The Settings tab
The Settings tab (see Figure 96) displays a complete overview of the settings for
components, virus scans and program updates. You can find out the current
security level for a component or virus scan, what actions are being taken with
dangerous objects, or what settings are being used for program updates. Use the
Change settings link to configure the component.
You can configure advanced settings for virus scans:
• Establish the priority of scan tasks used if the processor is heavily loaded.
The Concede resources to other applications box is checked by
default. With this feature, the program tracks the load on the processor
and disk subsystems for the activity of other applications. If the load on
the processor increases significantly and prevents the user's applications
from operating normally, the program reduces scanning activity. This
increases scan time and frees up resources for the user's applications.

• Set the computer’s mode of operation for after a virus scan is complete.
You can configure the computer to shut down, restart, or go into standby
or sleep mode. To select an option, left-click on the hyperlink until it
displays the option you need.
You may need this feature if, for example, you start a virus scan at the
end of the work day and do not want to wait for it to finish.
However, to use this feature, you must take the following additional steps:
before launching the scan, you must disable password requests for
objects being scanned, if enabled, and enable automatic processing of
dangerous objects, to disable the program’s interactive features.
