Protecting your computer from viruses, Trojans, spyware, and other malware is very important. Sometimes, the lack of adequate protection can lead to the loss or theft of valuable information, both personal and business. If for some reason you cannot install the antivirus on your PC, use an online scanner. Let's take a look at how this can be done using the example of Panda's online scanner.

Step 1
What is an online scanner. This is a program that is downloaded to your computer only once. After you check your PC for malware and close your Internet browser, the program will disappear. She has completed her task and can calmly “leave”.
Step 2

What is this product? ActiveScan 2.0 is the next generation online scanner. His work is based on the principle of collective intelligence (scanning "in the clouds"). This antivirus can detect malware that traditional security solutions cannot detect.
Step 4
On the online antivirus page, you will see a large green button labeled "Scan". Also there are several buttons "submenu": "Quick scan", "Full scan", "Custom checks". Select the type of scan you want and click on the green Scan button.
Step 5
The program will offer you to download the ActiveX controls component - you need to do this only for the first scan and the download procedure will take only a minute. After that, click on the "Scan" button again. The process will start and after a while you will be able to see the result.
