What is disinfection?
Disinfection removes a virus from a file or boot sector. However, it doesn't
undo any actions the virus has already taken.

Quarantine manager (all scanning types).•
Getting information via the scan progress dialog box
For an on−demand scan or a scan run from a right−click menu, in the log that is
displayed in the scan progress dialog box, click the name of the virus you want to
