Abstract:
A system and method in a virtual universe system for triggering scans of virtual items and inventories of virtual items and for scanning the virtual items and inventories wherein the scans may be triggered by an avatar moving or teleporting from one region to another, or by an avatar picking up, dropping off, or accepting or purchasing an item. The degree of scanning may depend upon factors such as location where these scan triggers occur. The signature of the item may be identified by the scan process. The item signature may be compared against signatures of known malicious items stored in an inventory item signatures database and a summary of the signature comparison may be sent to a resident and stored in the resident's inventory.

Claim (Index 15):
A computer program product embodied in a computer readable medium for operating in a system comprising at least one computer system having a network adapter for accessing a network, a processing unit, and a memory, for implementing a method for triggering scans of items in a virtual universe, the virtual universe having at least one avatar owned by a resident, at least one avatar having an item and an item inventory, the method comprising:\n detecting that an avatar with the virtual item is entering or leaving a teleport action; in response to the detecting, scanning, using a geometry scanner, the virtual item; determining if the scanned virtual item has a geometry that differs from a normal virtual item, and if so:\n triggering an item alert and blocking the scanned virtual item, \n checking attributes of the scanned virtual item against attributes of known malicious virtual items, and \n updating an inventory item safety summary accordingly.
