The VShield Scanner
. This is an On-access Scanning (OAS) component
that gives you continuous anti-virus protection from viruses that arrive
on floppy disks, from your network, or from various sources on the
Internet. The VShield scanner starts when you start your computer, and
stays in memory until you shut down. A flexible set of property pages
lets you tell the scanner which parts of your system to examine, what to
look for, which parts to leave alone, and how to respond to any infected
files it finds. In addition, the scanner can alert you when it finds a virus,
and can summarize each of its actions.

viruses, worms, and trojans from spreading further. HAWK monitors
e-mail clients such as Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, and any other
client that supports SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), but does not
support Internet-based e-mail such as MSN’s Hotmail.
