Re: System Restore & Notton System Works

Hi,

How EZ Antivirus Deals With Viruses :

Default Actions - Real-time Protection
When a virus is found by the real-time protection, a message window will
immediately be displayed. The following actions are taken when a virus
is found by the real-time protection (file and email protection).

Note: The following are common detection scenarios. It is possible that
other scenarios can occur depending on your real-time protection
configuration and the type of virus detected.

Files

Scenario 1 - Infected file is accessed:

EZ Antivirus will clean the file for you as it is accessed. At this
stage, a message will appear advising you about all aspects of the virus
found. The message box includes a link to virus-specific information
stored on the Computer Associates Virus Encyclopedia. This gives a
detailed description of the virus detected. The virus will be removed
from the location it was detected in, and the system will be clean.

Scenario 2 - Infected file is accessed but can't be cleaned:

From time to time, files are reported as being infected, but are not
able to be cleaned. If a virus is found that is not cleanable, a message
will pop up advising you of the name and location of the file when it
was detected. Access to the file will be denied, and the infection
and/or propagation will not occur.

The infected file will be quarantined (excluding ZIP files and other
archives).

It is recommended that you send the file to us for further analysis.

Scenario 3 - Detecting infected ZIP files and other archives.

ZIP files and other Archives containing viruses, worms or Trojans will
go undetected until the infected file contained in the archive is
extracted. Once any attempt to extract or execute the infection is made,
the file will be dealt with according to Scenario 1 and 2 above.

Emails

Scenario 1 - Infected email is sent to your email address:

EZ Antivirus' email protection detects the infection before it is
delivered to your inbox. The email attachment cannot be accessed, or
opened. A message will appear advising you about all aspects of the
virus found. The message box includes a link to virus-specific
information stored on the Computer Associates Virus Encyclopedia. This
gives a detailed description of the virus detected.

The email will be sent to you with an attachment called
AntiVirusReport.txt. The attachment will contain the name of the
infection and the action performed on the virus.

The infected part of the email will be quarantined.

Scenario 2 - Infected email is sent to your address without email
scanning enabled:

The infected email will be in your inbox. If you try and access the
file, the real-time file scanner will detect the file attachment
according to the File scenario mentioned above. If there is no
attachment, and the email uses a script to infect, the real-time
protection will detect the script or the file that is dropped as a
result of the script running.

I did more reading about Etrust Internet Security package and I am not
sure if it supports
my Email Application which is Forte Agent. It does say that it
supports POP but mine is POP and SMTP.
Do you know about that?
