You can create a custom scan if you regularly scan a particular segment of your computer. This custom scan lets you scan the segment frequently without having to specify it every time. You can also schedule the custom scan to run automatically.

You can delete the scan when it is no longer necessary. For example, if you work on a project for which you need to swap files frequently with others. In this case, you might want to create a folder into which you copy and scan those files before using them. When the project is done, you can delete the custom scan for that folder.

Sometimes PCs become infected with difficult to remove "scareware" programs or they get so infected by threats that are deeply buried in the PC’s operating system that special tools are required to remove them. That’s where Norton Rescue Tools can help.
