Without dazuko support, the umbrella will remain closed but you could still use the on-demand scanning feature of AntiVir.

To perform a scan on your system, go to Applications –> Accessories –> Terminal and run the command below:

sudo avscan

finita l'installazione per aggiornare le firme dei virus scivete da terminale:

sudo antivir --update

per lanciare la scansione in modo ricorsivo con cartelle e sottocartelle scrivete sempre da terminale:

sudo antivir -s

con questo comando incomincia la scansione della cartella dove lanciate il comando, per scansionare altre cartelle basta indicare il percorso ad esempio sudo anvivir -s /opt , alla fine il software indica le directory, ed eventuali file infetti, eccovi un esempio.

directories: 297
scanned files: 3790
alerts: 0
suspicious: 0
scan time: 00:00:25
