Access the local VirusScan console by clicking Start->All Programs->McAfee->VirusScan Console. On the menu bar, click Task->On-Access Scanner Properties. Select All Processes. Under the Scan Items tab, locate the "Compressed files:" label. Ensure the "Scan inside archives (e.g., .ZIP)" option is selected.
