Hello and Welcome :)

So, you want to do a boot-time scan ?
To schedule a boot-time scan do the following. Start avast! antivirus -> Menu -> Schedule Boot-time scan ;)
Please note that the boot-time scanner works only on NT based systems (like WinNT, Win2000, WinXP) ;)

I see.Thank you very much.

There is another question. While I opened the software, it showed me the simple user interface and if I chose "don't show it next time" , it would warn that there was a script mistake on the current window. How to fix this problem? I use Internet Explorer 7 ??? ???

Thanks again.
