Document protection

The Document protection feature scans Microsoft Office documents before they are opened, as well as files downloaded automatically by Internet Explorer such as Microsoft ActiveX elements. Document protection provides a layer of protection in addition to Real-time file system protection, and can be disabled to enhance performance on systems that do not handle a high number of Microsoft Office documents.

To activate Document protection, open the Advanced setup window (press F5) > Detection engine > Malware scans > Document protection and click the Enable Document protection switch.
