You can view the list of created tasks and tasks in progress on the special Dr.Web for Linux page. If at least one task is queued, a button that opens the page with the task list becomes visible in the navigation pane. Depending on the status of the queued tasks, the button has one of the following icons:
|
At least one of the tasks is not complete (icon is animated). |
|
All scanning tasks in the list are complete or stopped by the user; no threat is detected or all detected threats are successfully neutralized. |
|
All scanning tasks in the list are complete or stopped by the user; some of the detected threats are not neutralized. |
|
All scanning tasks in the list are complete or stopped by the user. Some of the tasks failed. |
Tasks are sorted by creation time (from the last to the first created task).
Figure 11. Task management page
For each listed task, the following information is available:
•Scanning type (the list may contain not only Express scan, Full scan, and Custom scan but also scanning of additional types, see below).
•Name of the user who started scanning (if unknown, the system identifier of the user (UID) is displayed).
•Date of task creation and completion (if complete)
•Number of detected threats, neutralized threats, skipped files, and total number of scanned objects.
The status of the task is indicated with the color mark assigned to the listed task. The following colors are used:
|
Scanning is not complete or is pending. |
|
|
Scanning is complete or stopped by the user; no threat is detected or all detected threats are neutralized. |
|
|
Scanning is stopped due to an error. |
|
|
Scanning is complete or stopped by the user; at least one detected threat is not neutralized. |
Note that the list contains only those scanning tasks performed by Scanner that were directly created by the user in the Dr.Web for Linux window but also scanning tasks that were launched automatically according to the set schedule.
On the task description area, one of the following buttons is available:
•Cancel—cancel the pending task. The button is available if the task is pending. Once the button is clicked, the task completes. Information on the task remains in the list.
•Stop—stop the task which is in progress. After you click this button, the stopped task cannot be resumed. The button is available if the task is in progress. Information on the stopped task remains in the list.
•Close—close information on the complete task and delete the task from the list. The button is available if the task is not complete and if all detected threats are neutralized.
•Neutralize—neutralize threats. The button is available if the task is complete and some of the detected threats are not neutralized.
•Details—open the list with detected threats and neutralize them. The button is available if the task is complete and some of the detected threats are not neutralized.
Click Report to display information on scanning results including detailed information on the task and the list of detected threats, if any.

File systems of UNIX-like operating systems, such as GNU/Linux, can contain special objects that appear as named files but are not actual files containing data (for example, such objects are symbolic links, sockets, named pipes, and device files). They are called special files as opposed to usual (regular) ones. Dr.Web for Linux always skips special files during scanning. |
If you click the detected threat name, its description will open in the browser (a page of Doctor Web official website will open; internet connection is required) installed in the system.
Click Export if you want to save the scanning report to a text file. To close the window with detailed scanning information, click Close.
To any threat detected during scanning which was started in graphical mode (including a scheduled scanning), Dr.Web for Linux applies actions that are specified in the settings on the Scanner tab.
|
Note that threat neutralization settings specified on the Scanner tab are not used for centralized and console scanning. |
To view all detected threats, open the page with listed detected threats.
