Cada software antivirus tiene su propio método de respuesta cuando encuentra un virus, esta respuesta puede diferir si el software localiza el virus durante un escaneo automático o manual. La mayoría de las veces el software antivirus produce una ventana de alerta notificando que ha encontrado un virus y pregunta si se desea "limpiar" el archivo (remover el virus). En otros casos, el software antivirus simplemente borra el archivo, sin la necesidad de preguntar antes de hacerlo.
