•For graphic desktop environments, scanning can be started from a taskbar (such as Unity Launcher on the Ubuntu OS) and from a graphical file manager (such as Nautilus). Furthermore, the application status indicator appears in the notification area of the desktop, displays pop-up notifications and provides access to the application menu. The indicator is displayed as the notification agent, which, as well as all other service components, starts automatically and its operation does not require intervention.

Regardless of the selected method to install Dr.Web Security Space, after the installation you need either to activate the license or install a key file if it has already been obtained, or connect Dr.Web Security Space to a centralized protection server (see Registration and Activation). Until you do that, anti-virus protection is disabled.
The mail protocol, IMAP, that is mostly used by mail clients (such as Mozilla Thunderbird) to receive email messages from an email server, works in sessions. Therefore, after adjusting operation of the SpIDer Gate monitor (enabling a previously disabled monitor, changing the mode of scanning of secure connections), it is necessary to restart the email client, so that SpIDer Gate could scan incoming email messages after adjusting its operation mode. |
