When a Scan is Finished
Once a scan is finished, and some spyware/malware/suspicious file has been found, a dialog will be displayed with the detected objects listed in a box. For each object, you can decide what to do.
After clicking an object in the list, more information on that object will be displayed in the right-hand part of the dialog. In the left-hand box, three columns of information are shown:
- Threat - shows the name of the detected spyware/malware/virus.
- Action - informs you what action will be/has been taken towards the detected object, unless you choose otherwise. Right-click the option to select another action from the context menu.
- Risk - can be low, medium, or high; indicates how potentially dangerous the detected object is.

By default, actions for all detected objects are set to "Recommended actions" (pre-set and recommended by the manufacturer, according to the risk level). To change actions for all listed objects at the same time, right-click the Set all elements to: option and select the desired action from the context menu. Available actions are:
- Quarantine - move the objects to the quarantine.
- Delete - completely remove the objects from the disk.
- Delete on reboot - completely remove the objects during the computer restart. This option is useful for blocked detected files. If you get an "Error during delete" message, you are advised to use this option.
- Ignore once - leave the object on the disk without taking any action this time, and upon the next scan, detect it again.
- Add to exceptions - add the objects to the list of exceptions, so that the objects are not detected as spyware any more.
- Recommended actions - for each single object, perform the automatically pre-set recommended action.

When actions for all objects are set, press the Apply all actions button to perform the actions. If the button is inactive, the actions have already been performed.
To change the action for just one or several detected objects manually, right-click the action on the respective line, and select the desired action from the context menu (as described above).
After the scan, you can also save the scan report, or run a new scan.
