In this tab the antivirus engine parameters are set.
You can specify a non-standard location of the antivirus engine (the search module) and the virus databases.
If during the mail guard session there was an update by the automatic updating utility, SpIDer Mail immediately loads the databases updated. If databases were updated in another way (for example, they were copied to the installation folder), the mail guard can also load the updated databases without reloading the program. This is periodically checked by the flag file (by default, a "hot add-on" of the database). A change of the flag file means it is high time to update the databases. You can specify the name and the location of the flag file, as well as the interval between the checks (300 seconds, by default).
Click Advanced to configure additions settings of the antivirus engine.
