Scan the email Inbox
After installing the virus and spyware protection service for the first time, we recommend
running an on-demand email scan before proceeding. This checks for threats in email already in
the client’s Microsoft Outlook Inbox. Future emails are scanned before they are placed in the
Inbox.
To run an on-demand email scan:
From the Tools menu in Outlook, select Scan for Threats.
The On-Demand Email Scan dialog box appears when the scan starts. You can stop, pause, and
restart the scan. You can also check the results of the scan.
Set up the default firewall
To ensure complete protection on computers running Windows XP or Windows Vista, the
firewall protection service automatically disables the Windows firewall and configures itself as
the default firewall. This enables it to monitor communications for Internet applications and
track events for reporting purposes, even if the Windows firewall is also running.
We recommend that you do not re-enable the Windows firewall while the Enforced Client
firewall is enabled.
Caution
If both firewalls are enabled, the Enforced Client firewall lists only a subset of the blocked IP
addresses in its
Inbound Events Blocked by the Firewall report. The Windows firewall blocks
some of these addresses; however, it does not report them because event logging is disabled in
the Windows firewall by default. If both firewalls are enabled, you must enable Windows
firewall logging to view a list of all blocked IP addresses. The default Windows firewall log is
C:\Windows\pfirewall.log. Enabling both firewalls also results in duplicate status and alert
messaging.
