[Resolved] Screen Saver?
« on: January 20, 2011, 03:17:48 AM »
How do I run/turn on the screen saver scan. I've looked at the properties and I still can't find the screen saver scan. Where is it hiding? Please don't tell me it is right there in front of me. However, I'd wouldn't doubt it. Let me guess it's in the UI.

Never mind. Another daft moment. Can you say ..."Duh". Again. Sometimes I feel like a complete twit.
I "does" help to read the instructions.

Just to let you know, you can customize the screen saver scan by going to settings/show special scans and it will show under the Scan Now tab in the GUI.
Please see the attachments.

Thanks Charyb. I should have known it was in the UI. I don't use this scan but it's nice to know how. I use a "customized" scan 2 to 3 times a week.
