3ds Max Security Tools
Overview
3ds Max Security Tools can safely remove corruption-causing scripts from your system, including any infected scene files. The cleaning process is non-destructive, and does not affect any scene data. The Security Tools detect and remove the scripts when 3ds Max starts, as well as when a scene is loaded or saved, including when the scene is merged or XRefed. When a script is detected and removed, the event is added to the system log, Max.log. If 3ds Max is run in quiet mode (run as 3dsmax.exe -silent, and not showing dialogs), the event is also displayed in the MAXScript listener.
The Security Tools will protect and clean systems that are already infected, and allow you to safely use scene files shared from other machines. When disabled, the Security Tools do not scan for the scripts, and your system is vulnerable to infection.
You can enable or disable the Security Tools from the Customize menu.
