Does Symantec scan thumb drives once the are plugged in? I have a user that wants to plug in the thumb drive to transfer documents from a pc to a laptop. I want to make sure the virus scan software catches anything when the user plugs it in.

I think if you open the app, then go to "Scans", you can setup to scan all drives or customize how you want to scan.
