Repairing files:
The CLS is trying to repair infected files. If this fails, access is blocked. The following
option must be active:

It is not activated by default.

AlertAction

Action when detecting viruses or unwanted programs:
If

RepairConcerningFiles is not set or repair is not possible, access to the file is

blocked and the action is logged. The following options define the actions of the CLS
(check the user permissions!):

•

none or ignore: no further action

•

rename or ren: renaming the file by adding the .XXX extension.

•

delete or del: delete the concerning file.

•

quarantine: move the concerning file into quarantine, if you defined one (see
