An anti-virus program that scans and removes malicious files from your computer, McAfee also scans. It is not hard to disable McAfee's On-Access Scanning. I finally figured out what happened, although I'm not sure on how it happened. NetBIOS on the server got turned off, which I don't ever remember changing, my boss is fairly sure it was not him either. As soon as I turned it back on, scanning worked again. Thanks for everyone's assistance.
The script scanner operates as a proxy component to the real Windows scripting host component. It intercepts scripts, then scans them before they are executed.
For example, the script scanner confirms:
- If the script is clean, it is passed on to the real scripting host component.
- If the script contains a potential threat, the script is not executed.
Note: On Windows Server 2008 systems, Script Scan URL exclusions do not work with Windows Internet Explorer unless you click the checkbox Enable third-party browser extensions to enable the setting and restart Windows Server 2008.
