Hello!
The basic principle on which most anti virus softwares work remain the same with a minor differences. An antivirus software checks your computer's files for specific patterns that might indicate the presence of a virus infection. Based on the signatures or patterns of known viruses, the software is able to detect if your computer is infected.

To counter this technique, virus authors release new and updated viruses that your antivirus might not *be able to detect as its library doesn't have the latest patterns. That's why its very important to keep updating your antivirus software frequently and regularly scan your computer

Automatic scans - Based on what software you select, you will be capable to set up *it mechanically scan specific files or directories and prompt you at set intervals to perform complete scans. :drunk:

Hello!
What happens if the software finds a virus?

Hi!
Every package has its own process of response when it situate a virus, and the response may disagree according to whether the software locates the virus during an automatic or a manual scan. Sometimes the software will produce a dialog box alerting you that it has found a virus and asking whether you want it to "clean" the file . In other cases, the software may attempt to remove the virus without asking you first. :dancing:
