For an existing infected file, Scan on Access and Modify detects the infected file and the Leave alone action applies. The file is denied access and logged, but it is not deleted. When you disable this option, Symantec AntiVirus permits the infected file to be created. Preserve file times Enable this option if you do not want the file system to change the last access time. Preserving the last access time prevents backup software from backing up unchanged files. 6 Under File cache, select one of the following: Disable file cache Disable the file cache; for example, you may use this option during troubleshooting. Use default file cache size Use the default file cache size setting for desktop computers and use as close to the maximum setting as possible for servers. The default file cache size is based on the computer's operating system and the amount of available disk space. File caching decreases Auto-Protect's memory usage and can help you to track problems. Symantec AntiVirus adds a 16-byte entry to the cache index, which remains until Symantec AntiVirus detects a change to the file.
