Report Headings Suggestion

Hello, in the antivirus events after each scan you get say 20 'Infected file detected' messages which covers way too many different threat detections. This is a waste of screen space, means nothing and does not indicate the severity or type of the threat.


So instead please implement the following format:


Infected file detected - Infection type here


Some examples:


Infected file deleted - Browser cookie threat name


Infected file detected - Trojan.Generic.Win32 user action required


Infected file detected - Browser hijacker - name


Infected file detected - Rootkit - threat name


Hopefully you get the idea. The reason I ask is because in amongst all the cookies generated events there was one file flagged as malicious that was a more serious threat.


If I could not be bothered going through each individual report and clicking them to read the summary, I would have missed it.
