Do I have a Virus? Is this Email a Hoax?
How to Scan for Viruses using Trend:
- Locate blue stop sign shape in the system tray (lower right corner of your screen). It should have a yellow squiggle line in it. Right click on it and select OfficeScan Console.
- In the OfficeScan Client dialog box you should now see a list of your drives. Indicate which drive you would like to scan by clicking in the box to the left of it. We recommend scanning drive C:.
- Click on the Scan button which is now available on the right.
- When the scan is complete and if the results box contains a virus found message, contact the Help Desk.
