<B>Q.What is Proactive Scanning?</B>
<B> Solution </B>


<I>A. Proactive scanning is an intelligent method used by eScan to check if a file is suspicious or good.
To disable the Password prompt window, displayed while internet browsing, when the web protection is on, please follow the below steps:


All executable files, library files and driver files can be checked by proactive scanning. A signed file (signed by Verisign, for example) is always whitelisted by proactive engine.
* Go to start > run and type regedit and press enter
* Then go to following registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MicroWorld\ContentFiltering


eScan maintains its own whitelisted database (which is auto-updated, along with the signatures) in order to keep files which are exceptions.
:make the below entry
<B>showdialog  (Reg_Dword)</B>
<B>value = 0</B>


This DB is constantly kept updated by MicroWorld.
This will not display the password prompt window but will show the <B>Access Denied Page</B>.


Suspicious scanning is not 100% perfect - and thats the reason, it has to always work alongside with a malware scanner. There may be false-positives, and if one is found, MicroWorld updates its DB as soon as possible, to ensure that FPs are removed.</I>
