Enabled scanners apply to connected peers of the same type, and will be used on all policy routes involving the Detect Virus content rule. 'Enabled Scanners' is a system setting defined by your selection.

The virus counters measure the number of individual threats encountered by each scanner, rather than the number of messages affected. For more detailed information about affected messages, see Message Tracking or view the System Health page.
