How
Does Dr. Web Antivirus for Windows Vista
work?
Dr. Web Security is mainly known for its
heuristic protection. Dr. Web Antivirus
for Windows Vista also accomplishes the job through acute scanning
operations. The scan programs are on-demand, boot-time scanner, periodical, and
manual. The scan operation draws out a diagnosis of the entire system including
email section and externally connected devices if any. The diagnosis tells
about the presence of malware components and the infected areas in the system.
The scan programs are behavioral detective analyzed which further finds out if
any application in the system is acting suspiciously or in an intrusive manner
or trying to get unauthorized access to the device’s media. The recovery tool
reaches the ailing areas of the system, eliminates malicious files, restores
the setting and cures the infection. The program also blocks the prying
activities of the PUAs and acts as a protective shield so that no infection can
enter the main device from the external sources.

keyboard entry, blocks adware from displaying sudden popups, neutralizes bank
trojans and eliminates rootkits that modify system setting and grant prying
networks’ access to the main device.
