2 About Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10
2.1 What Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 does
Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 detects and deals with viruses (including worms and Trojans) on your
Linux computer. As well as being able to detect all Linux viruses, it can also detect all non-Linux viruses that might be stored on your Linux computer and transferred to non-Linux computers. It does this by scanning your computer.
2.2 How Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 protects your computer
On-access scanning is your main form of protection against viruses. Whenever you open, save or copy a file, Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 scans it and grants access to it only if it is safe.
Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 also enables you to run an on-demand scan to provide additional protection. An on-demand scan is a scan that you initiate. You can scan anything from a single file to everything on your computer that you have permission to read. You can either manually run an ondemand scan or schedule it to run unattended.

4 On-access scanning
On-access scanning is your main form of protection against viruses. Whenever you open, save or copy a file, Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 scans it and grants access to it only if it is safe.
By default, on-access scanning is active. If you want, you can check that it is active and start it if necessary.
Note
To use the commands in this section, you must be logged on to the computer as root.
This document assumes that you have installed Sophos Anti-Virus in the default location, /opt/ sophos-av . If you haven't, when you run a command, you must substitute the installation directory that you are using.
4.1 Start on-access scanning
To start on-access scanning, do one of the following:
• Type: /opt/sophos-av/bin/savdctl enable .
• Use the appropriate tool to start the installed service sav-protect. For example, type: /etc/ init.d/sav-protect start or service sav-protect start .

5 Run an on-demand scan of the computer
We recommend that you scan the whole computer for viruses right after you install Sophos Anti-
Virus. To do this, you run an on-demand scan.
Note
This is especially important if the computer is a server and you want to minimize the risk of spreading viruses to other computers.
• To run an on-demand scan of the computer, type: savscan / .

6 What happens if viruses are detected
Regardless of whether viruses are detected by on-access scanning or an on-demand scan, by default Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10:
• Logs the event in syslog and the Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 log.
• Sends an email alert to root@localhost.
Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 also displays alerts according to whether the viruses were detected by on-access scanning or an on-demand scan, as explained below.
On-access scanning
If on-access scanning detects a virus, Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 denies access to the file and by default displays a desktop pop-up alert.
If the desktop pop-up alert cannot be displayed, a command-line alert is displayed instead.
For information about cleaning up viruses, see the Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux configuration guide .
On-demand scans
If an on-demand scan detects a virus, by default Sophos Anti-Virus for Linux 10 displays a command-line alert. It reports the virus on the line which starts with >>> followed by either Virus or
