The VShield component of VirusScan has also been expanded in the latest release with the addition of three new network- and Internet-specific modules. The new E-Mail Scan module detects viruses in e-mail attachments that are sent over your internal network mail system. The Download Scan module monitors e-mail received over the Internet as well as downloaded files. Finally, the Internet Filter module detects and protects you against hostile Java applets and ActiveX Controls. The filter module can also be used to block access to specific Web sites.
The interface for VShield has been redesigned to group the configuration options for all four of the modules (the three new ones plus the existing System Scan module) and a configuration wizard has been designed to get you up and running quickly with the most common scanning options. The new release also sports a revamped VShield Security module that allows you to protect the individual properties for any VShield module against unauthorized changes.
