Quarantine

The quarantine manager manages affected objects. AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic can move affected objects to the quarantine directory in a special format. It can then no longer be executed or opened.

Note
To move objects into the quarantine manager, select the relevant option for quarantine in the AntiVir PersonalEdition Classic configuration under Scanner - Scan :: Action for malware :: Handling when malware is detected if you are working in automatic mode. Alternatively, you can select the relevant option for quarantine in the interactive mode.
