All necessary components are running and protecting your computer. Connection to the central protection server is established. |
|
Self-Protection or an important component is disabled, or virus databases are out-of-date, that compromises security of the anti-virus and your computer; or connection to the server is expected. Probably, the server refused the connection or denied access to its resources. Enable Self-Protection or the disabled component, wait until the connection to the server is established or contact your anti-virus network administrator if the connection is not established. |
