Viewing and Handling Autorun Items
The Autorun Analyzer allows you to manage autorun items that are loaded to your system during system start up. All autorun entries are displayed in a tree structure with their description, location, software publisher details and threat rating. Untrusted Autorun entries are highlighted for easy identification.
On selecting an autorun entry, the complete details like the parent application, installation date/time, version of the application, software publisher information are shown in the Information area beneath the main display pane for the entry.
You can filter the entries based on their categories and the users that has started them, by selecting the category from the Category Selection Pane and the user from the 'User' menu in the file menu bar respectively.
You can perform various operations on any entry by selecting an entry and selecting an option from the 'Entry' menu in the file menu bar or right-clicking on an entry and selecting an option from the context sensitive menu. Also you can directly enable or disable an entry from the main display pane by selecting/deselecting the checkbox beside the entry.
