Scheduling AVAST to run
« on: February 08, 2005, 11:38:40 PM »
hi all. i started using AVAST Home about a week ago and it seems like an excellent program.

one question i have though -- can you schedule it to run at a particular time other than doing a boot scan at start up? if there is that feature i haven't come across it yet.

thanks.

This is a function that is only available with the pro version. There is however, a work around, Schedule Automatic Scan avast! Home Version!. This however, scans all files, even those not thought to be a risk.

Personally I don't feel it necessary, I just run a manual scan weekly.
