How does ActiveScan Pro work |
|
| |
The first time you use ActiveScan Pro you will need to download the ActiveX controls and the rest of the components of the application. The file size is 1.5 MB and will take approximately 5 minutes using a 56k modem. During the process a message is displayed prompting you to confirm you want to download these components, you must accept it to begin using ActiveScan Pro.
As the disinfect option is enabled by default, ActiveScan Pro will delete any malicious code it detects. When the scan finishes, you can check the results through a practical and simple report. If ActiveScan Pro could not disinfect a malicious code, the scan report will allow you to send the infected file to Panda's laboratory, which will analyze the file and offer you a solution to the problem. |

On-demand protection |
|
| |
ActiveScan Pro is designed to detect and eliminate any malicious code that has got into your computer. However, it does not permanently protect your computer. This function is performed by other Panda products.
Remember that many viruses can delete files or send themselves to the contacts in your address book. To stop these kinds of threats you need a good security program installed on your computer. This solution should offer permanent protection and daily updates to prevent malicious code from getting into your computer.
If you want maximum protection for your computer, install Platinum 2006 Internet Security, or another Panda security product (Titanium 2006 Antivirus, TruPrevent Personal 2005). All of these products have earned wide recognition and numerous awards for their advanced technology, level of protection and ease of use. Titanium Antivirus 2006 is aimed at home users' and the Platinum range is designed to meet the needs of businesses and professionals. |

About Microsoft ActiveX technology |
|
| |
ActiveX technology, patented by Microsoft, allows online programs to be run on computers through Internet Explorer. It also allows users to open Word or Excel documents directly through the browser or to scan the entire computer for viruses at a click.
ActiveScan Pro uses this technology to perform its functions. In order to use this tool, all you need is a web browser that supports the execution of ActiveX controls (Internet Explorer 4 or later).
Are ActiveScan controls dangerous? No, they are completely safe. They include a certificate in the name of Panda Security to guarantee the authenticity of the program. What's more, nothing will be run on your computer without your consent, as you will be informed through the browser that ActiveScan Pro is going to be downloaded and run and asked for your permission. |
