It is important to keep an eye on your website and email to check the infection of viruses, and this can be easily achieved using cPanel’s in-built Virus Scanner. Perform the following steps to do so :<\/p>\n

1. Log in to your cPanel<\/strong> account.<\/p>\n

2. Locate the Advanced<\/strong> section and click on Virus Scanner<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"scan-1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

3. A new page will open. From the given options you need to select anyone. As in the below image you can see, we have selected Scan Mail<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"scan-mail-2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

4. Click Scan Now<\/strong> button.<\/p>\n

5. After clicking, you can see a new page appears that shows the progress of the scan and any files which have been infected.<\/p>\n

\"scan-mail-3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

6. From the above example, you can see that no virus has been detected. In such a case, click on the blue OK<\/strong> button<\/strong>, and that will take you back to the Start a New Scan page.<\/p>\n

However, if any virus was found, then click the OK button<\/strong> and that would take you to a new page where the threat could be resolved.<\/p>\n

7. When the virus is found, you will be given three options of what to do with it: Quarantine, Destroy or Ignore<\/strong>. Decide which action you want to take and click on your chosen option. After that, click on the blue Process Cleanup<\/strong> button to carry out all the actions.<\/p>\n

\"scan-mail-4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

8. A new page will appear asking you to confirm the Cleanup Process has been completed successfully.<\/p>\n

\"scan-mail-5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

9. The process now gets complete. Click on the Go Back button and that will take you back to the Start New Scan page.<\/p>\n

That’s it.<\/p>\n
