Heuristic/Reference Scanning
eScan has a powerful Anti-Virus engine that scans your system
for virus, worms trojans and other threats. The various features include:
- Heuristic Analysis: A virus-infected file displays
suspicious behavior, has strange code or content. eScan is
built to recognize such files. Heuristic analysis of your
system reveals any file, folder or application, which appears
strange to the application. Such files can be either deleted
or quarantined. You can then mail a copy of this file to us
and we will analyze it and come back to you with a solution
- Reference Analysis: Known viruses are identified
by their code called virus signatures. Our software has a
vast database of over 50,000 known viruses. Reference Analysis
creates a checksums of files that are analyzed and refers
to these sums the next time an analysis is performed. This
allows eScan to detect unknown viruses.
Select File Type: eScan scans all types
of file formats. This includes file types like: BAT, JS, MIRC,
Inf, PHP, pdf, doc, ppt, etc.
These features are found in Monitor Settings > eScan
Monitor Settings > Analysis > Objects

Scan File types
eScan scans all file types. A default file type list is present
in the application. You can add new file types as required.
eScan allows you to select actions that are run when an infected
file is detected. These actions can be configured separately
when scanning is done as per the schedule or for immediate
scanning. When an infected file is detected, you can choose
to: record the details, stop search, remove virus immediately,
delete infected file or quarantine the infected file. Settings
can be done for both heuristic scan and reference analysis.
The feature is found in Start eScan for Windows > Options > Virus Check (Tab)

Scheduled Scanning
eScan allows you to set a schedule to begin auto scanning
of your whole system or selected files and folders. You can
specify actions that should be run for infected files: Quarantine,
Delete or Disinfect. You can begin scanning immediately or
select the period (once, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly or
at system start up). You can also select the hour and minute
when scanning should start automatically.
