Scanning a download

I use IDM (internet download manager) and within it I can scan whatever I have downloaded for any viruses etc. I wish to use Nod32 to do this, what do I use to scan the just the item I have downloaded? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I was told to use one part but it only ever started Nod32 and didn't seem to scan it. I hope this makes sense.

 

Hello mudgecko63,

I have found the following information from the Internet Download Manager support site that could help. You may want to verify with them though.

Open "IDM Options->Downloads" dialog. You need to provide the full path to your virus scanner executable file in "Virus scanner program" field in "Options->Downloads" dialog. Then type command line options in the field below. Replace file name in the command line with "c:\program files\eset\nod32.exe" in "Virus scanner program" field and "[File] /s" in "command line parameter".

Thank you,
