On 12/1/14 ITS will adjust the McAfee scan settings on Denison-owned Windows computers to perform a quick scan daily and a full system scan every other week. This change is intended to catch malware and virus infections more quickly. Both scans are “silent” and will not impact your ability to use your computer while they are happening. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the ITS Help Desk at helpdesk@denison.edu or 740-587-6395.
