Post by: henry on March 01, 2004, 09:28:46 AM

Hello

Nearly ones a day I got a nasty virus, and I prefer to remove it at ones end forever.
I am not realy understand what the silent mode does, you can choos for Yes or NO. It seems me that it has no effect.
Can you make this clear to me ?

The first explains a lot to me.

"Silent Mode: No" deletes an infected attachment from a message and moves it to the chest.
The tab "Virus" for complex configuration of virus actions is in Enhanced interface (avast PRO).

Is in the avast HOME version the destination always the "chest" ?

I think not, unless I misunderstood you.
You can Repair, Move the file to Chest, Delete the file (to Recycle bin or permanently), Move the file to another folder at your choice...  8)

I did not make it clear, I think.
When I chose for the silent mode and select "NO"  
Then when I have the avast HOME version the destination of the virusses are to be placed in the chest.
This since you do not have the possibility in the home edition to chose for those options you mention.
Can you confirm this, because I want to be get rid of this smootly so my wife won't be disturbed with this isseus and questions.

Sorry, I'm not the right person to answer you... You need an answer from the team (the programmers).

Silent means chest, that's right.
