Network management and maintenance is a very complex task, but it is not so simple to do a good job of network management. The following author introduces the experience of some network management and maintenance skills: how to speed up the efficiency of your antivirus software, just for your reference.

Network management and maintenance skills 1. Speed up your antivirus software

When you use streaming audio media or other large files on the Internet, do not run a disk scan, nor do you run any program that reads the hard drive frequently. If you have a solid firewall and update it in a timely manner, you can disable NAV's automatic protection feature when you don't have access to the Internet or other network tools (including email), because this "automatic protection" feature will definitely adversely affect your performance.

You just need to make sure that the virus is scanned every time you open the downloaded file and after the virus library is updated. If Norton's real-time updates are too slow, you can skip Symantec's virus library download page and select its latest security patch and virus library.

Network management and maintenance skills 2. Integrate your antivirus software and firewall

If you install antivirus software on a system that is already protected by a firewall, you will be prompted to uninstall antivirus. Please ignore it and click the "next" button. Norton's installation will not be affected at all. When your computer restarts, you will find that ZoneAlarm Firewall has been disabled.

To fix these two virus scanning programs is actually very simple, in NAV, select "options > Norton antivirus software", remove all the boxes, disable NAV, and then restart the computer. A message will pop up asking if you want to enable virus scanning. If this prompt does not appear, you can double-click the icon in the system tray to manually turn on its antivirus and antispyware features. Reverse the previous steps once, and you can get the functions of the antivirus software at the same time.

Network management and maintenance skills 3. Turn off things you don't need.

If you only use Web-based email, such as accessing Gmail or Yahoo mailboxes only through a browser, instead of using email clients such as Outlook or Foxmail, you can safely turn off the automatic email protection for antivirus: click "options > Norton antivirus software", select "email" in the left pane, and uncheck "scan sent and received email".

Network management and maintenance skills 4. Turn on the "automatic protection" function

When you install a new game or application, some antivirus software will recommend that you keep the automatic protection function activated.

Network management and maintenance skills 5. Keep the news flowing

You should be aware of the latest virus threats and try to understand it.
