The Diagnose function examines selected files for viruses and Trojan horses. It does not repair or modify files in any way.
To diagnose entire volumes, select those you wish to examine by clicking on them in the volume list. Each time you click on a volume, it toggles between being selected and deselected. After selecting the desired volumes, click the Diagnose button. Virex will examine the selected volumes, reporting the results in the report area. While examining the files, a status bar replaces the buttons in the main Virex window. You may stop the examination at any time by clicking the stop button in the upper-right corner.
To diagnose a particular file or folder instead of an entire volume, hold down the option key and click the Diagnose button. A file selection dialog will appear, allowing you to choose the file or folder you wish to examine.
You can also use ΓÇ£drag and dropΓÇ¥ to diagnose files selected in Finder windows and on the Macintosh desktop. Drag the selected items onto the Virex Diagnose button or the Virex application icon.
