4.1.1.8 Document protection

The Document protection feature scans Microsoft Office documents before they are opened, as well as files

downloaded automatically by Internet Explorer such as Microsoft ActiveX elements. Document protection provides

a layer of protection in addition to Real-time file system protection, and can be disabled to enhance performance

on systems that are not exposed to a high volume of Microsoft Office documents.

Integrate into system activates the protection system. To modify this option, press F5 to open the Advanced setup

window and click Computer > Antivirus and antispyware > Document protection in the Advanced setup tree.

This feature is activated by applications that use Microsoft Antivirus API (e.g., Microsoft Office 2000 and higher, or

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 and higher).

4.1.2 Removable media

ESET Smart Security provides automatic removable media (CD/DVD/USB/...) scanning. This module allows you to

scan an inserted media. This may be useful if the computer administrator wishes to prevent the users from using

removable media with unsolicited content.

To modify behavior of the action that will be performed when a removable media is inserted into the computer

(CD/DVD/USB/...), press F5 to open the Advanced setup window and expand Computer > Antivirus and antispyware

> Removable media and select the default action in the Action to take after inserting removable media drop-down

menu. If the Show scan options option is selected, a notification will display which allows you to choose a desired

action:

Scan now – An on-demand computer scan of the inserted removable media device will be performed.

Scan later – No action will be performed and the New device detected window will be closed.

Setup... – Opens the Removable media setup section.

ESET Smart Security provides automatic device (CD/DVD/USB/...) control. This module allows you to scan, block or

useful if the computer administrator wishes to prevent use of devices with unsolicited content by users.
