   • Click Do → Scan Now from the main menu.

   

3. Set Enable Damage Cleanup Service check box to enable the service. Clear it to disable the service.
4. Under Scan target, choose one of the following:
   • All local drives: Scans all drives in a server
   • Selected drives/directories: Scans specific drives or directories on a server
     Click Browse. The Add Drives and/or Directories window appears. Select the check box(es) for the drives or directories you want to scan, then click OK to close the window.

     

5. Under Scan file type, choose one of the following:
   • All files: Scans all file types
   • Use IntelliScan: Scans files using true file type identification
     See IntelliScan.
   • Selected files: Scans only specified files
     Click Extension List to define the file types that you want to scan. Refer to Selecting File Types to Scan.
6. Under Scan options, select Scan OLE layers. Move the Scan OLE layers slider to set the number of OLE layers. ServerProtect can scan up to five layers.
7. Under Compressed file scanning, select the Scan compressed files check box. Move the Scan level slider to set the number of compressed layers that you want to scan. For information on advanced settings, refer to the Compressed file scan topic in the online help.

   Note If you choose to scan selected file types in step 4, make sure you include the extensions of compressed files in the extension list.
