You can also Quarantine infected files. Other features include setting the quarantine path and excluding files with specific masks (like .pdf, .txt) from scanning. Monitor allows you to exclude specific directories from scanning.

eScan also allows you to select different objects in your system and scan them for viruses. You can select and scan any directory or file, your whole computer, directories in your system and also running process for memory resident viruses.

When infected files are detected, you can set the action to be taken. The actions that can be preset include renaming the infected file, disinfect the file and if that fails, either rename or delete the file, etc.

Some other features include daily updates from the Internet to keep the software updated to tackle on new virus attacks, setup automatic scan schedules to scan the system at present times, web based interface to administer the software etc.
