Guard - Your personal minder
Guard is the monitoring component in Virus Utilities. To achieve the highest level of protection against malicious software, tick all of the available checkboxes.

If required, you can reduce the level of protection by unticking one or more checkboxes

If one or more areas are excluded from the scan, the appearance of the Virus Utilities symbol in the taskbar will change to indicate this. You will also see an yellow symbol and the message "Your system is partly safe configured." appears. Virus Utilities is then no longer able to provide you full protection.

If the Symbol turns to red your system protection is turned off and the status message is "Attention! Yous system is not safe configured."
