Frequently Asked Questions

  Can you give me any advice on how to better protect my computer from viruses?
  • Don't open e-mail attachments, even if they are presented as text files or if they came from unknown persons.
  • Schedule periodic drive scans at least once a week.
  • Do not panic if you discover a virus. Not well thought through actions or trying to delete it on your own may result in even more damage. First connect to the web and wait a few minutes for eScorcher to autoupdate. Then call up the program from your start menu, select "Scan". Whenever eScorcher finds a virus it will ask for your permission to delete it.
  • Do not use infected machine until it is disinfected, because a virus might spread and it will be harder to battle it.
  • If you are on the network, immediately inform your network administrator.
  • Always inform the people you exchanged disks with about the infection and suggest to them to scan their drives with the latest AntiVirus Software.

  Do you provide any technical support?
    Yes we provide a technical support to our users. You can contact us at support@eScorcher.com, or for priority support use our support center section. We also provide fee updates/upgrades. Each time a user logs on to the net eScorcher checks for new virus definitions and provides free auto updates if necessary.

   I never got any messages that virus definitions were updated, why?
    Each time you logon to the web, eScorcher checks our servers for the latest virus definitions. If update is required, it will occur automatically.

   Can I use several anti-virus programs at the same time?
    We do not recommend using two or more anti-virus programs at the same time, because they can conflict with each other.
