The reason you would set your anti-virus to quarantine is an alternative option to setting it to delete a file if it is suspected to be a virus.
The advantage with this is you can then check to see what the virus is, so you can see exactly what damage it has caused & to get the technical info on how to repair the damage (if applicable). Sometimes info on its originating source (eg whether it came via a website or email) can be gained by checking your anti-virus website for more info on the virus also. I always have my settings set to 'quarantine' for this very reason.
