Anti-spyware Components

Spyware Pattern

The Spyware Pattern identifies spyware/grayware in files and programs, modules in memory, Windows registry and URL shortcuts.

Spyware Scan Engine

The Spyware Scan Engine scans for and performs the appropriate scan action on spyware/grayware. This engine supports 32-bit and 64-bit platforms.

Spyware Active-monitoring Pattern

Spyware Active-monitoring Pattern is used for real-time spyware/grayware scanning. Only conventional scan clients use this pattern.

Smart scan clients use the Smart Scan Agent Pattern for real-time spyware/grayware scanning. Clients send scan queries to a Smart Protection Server if the risk of the scan target cannot be determined during scanning.
