I can not set up a scan to run when I have finished for the day
Only the Pro version has that option. With the home version you can do it using tasksheduler, or plan a boottime scan.
I've had to change my virtual memory as it kept telling me ... NOT ENOUGH MEMORY!
The "not enough memory" error on win98 systems is sometimes misleading. It doesn't always refer to you physical/virtual memory, but can refer to not enough diskspace. Also when your files are scattered all over the drive you can get this message. If files are at "the end" of your drive, win98 sometimes sees it as the drive is full. A defrag solves this.
why is it that I always have trouble?!?!?
I don't know you so I can only guess here. Not reading manuals, lack of knowledge, too much luck before, clicking things without reading the message? (no offense ment ofcourse)
Thinking of going back to AVG
In your avatar you have "proud Avast user" that doesn't stroke with eachother
Just tell us more and I'm pretty sure the problem(s) will be solved.
What exactly is changing in your connection settings?
What Avast version?
What are the Avast settings?
