Kaspersky Anti-Virus
®
for Palm OS
95
When Kaspersky Anti-Virus
®
detects a virus, the program handles it as you have
defined in the
Configuration
screen (see subchapter 5.4.1 on page 92). If you
selected to display the disinfect dialog, the
Infected Object
dialog box will
appear on your screen
(see subchapter 5.4.2.4 on page 97).
If the Anti-Virus detects an infected or suspicious object during application start
(only for PDA based on Palm OS 5.0) the program will offer the user to select a
proper action (see subchapter 5.4.2.4 on page 97).
Right after your Kaspersky Anti-Virus
®
completes checking for viruses,
performance statistics appears on your screen (see subchapter 5.4.2.6 on
page 100).
5.4.2.2. Monitoring HotSynced or Beamed data
Kaspersky Anti-Virus
®
can automatically scan for viruses in files that have been
beamed into your Palm device or loaded using the HotSync utility.
If your PDA is running Palm OS 5.x, the antivirus monitoring of your data is
enable if
Enable AV Monitor
box in the
Configuration
screen is checked (see
subchapter 92). For PDAs running Palm OS 3.x or 4.x you should enable the
Scan after Sync
and
Scan beamed files
modes.
The program monitors for viruses only in new and modified data uploaded to the
Palm using the HotSync utility.
If during a HotSync operation a new virus definition database is loaded
into your Palm, this database will replace the old one and other loaded
data will be checked for viruses using this new virus definition database.
If during a HotSync operation the new executable module KAVP.PRC is
loaded into your Palm, the program will not check for viruses in the
module or in any other data that was loaded together with it. If the mod-
ule is infected, the program will detect the virus when it starts to scan
for viruses the next time. However, it will not be able to disinfect or de-
lete itself. In this case, to delete the module you must use the conven-
tional tools on your Palm.
The program monitors for viruses in data that is beamed into the Palm by
checking them right after you load them from another Palm device.
