Vet is the engine in etrust anti virus but isnt really an anti trojan , nor are any other anti virus . Although KAV is capable of all round protection.
I have used Vet over the last year and really like it . In the last 5 yrs no other anti virus has surpassed it in VB100 awards. The other CA associates site for Vet is http://www.vet.com.au/

 

Well, on my road of anti virus software trials (so far NOD32 2.0, Kaspersky 5 Personal and F-Prot 3.15) I have downloaded eTrust EZ Antivirus 2005 because it was reported as being lightweight and good.

The problem is that I can't find a way of excluding directories from the real-time monitoring. I need to do this because work I do on my PC cause a lot of file access, and the effect of EZAV is so noticeable as to be intolerable. So far I've had to resort to putting the RTM in Snooze mode, but that's not really what I want to do.

Is this option not present?

Thank you,
Boah.

 

Hi Boah:
Yes there is a option to exclude files from scanning.
1. Double click on the Etrust icon in your task bar.
2. Click on options, than click on options wizard.
3.) I believe its 16 clicks and your there!!!!
4.) browse and enter what you want Etrust to exclude from scanning.
Hope this helps

 

Ah, got it.

I wish they put these things a bit more out in the open - normally a wizard is a simplified setup procedure and certainly does not contain any settings you can't get to from elsewhere in the application.

Oh well.

Thanks musicman!
