Got a Pickle
« on: March 27, 2011, 10:36:32 PM »
Got a Pickle... ???

Or should I say,
avast! has a Pickle. :-\

Most definitely,
I do have a Pickle, :o

With avast! and W7 64.

OK,
So here's the Pickle......

BOTH Quick scan AND Full system scan are not waking my PC as scheduled to run there scans.

Quick scan settings:
Scan PUP: Off
Schedule this scan
Schedule Type - Daily
Do not start the scan if running on batteries.
Pause the scan if batteries mode begins.
Wake up the system to start the scan (if in sleep mode).
Launch time - 0400
Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri, Sat.

Full system scan settings:
Scan PUP: Off
Schedule this scan
Schedule Type - Weekly
Do not start the scan if running on batteries.
Pause the scan if batteries mode begins.
Wake up the system to start the scan (if in sleep mode).
Launch time - 0400
Launch day: Sun.

NOTE
This being Sunday morning, I woke the PC @ 1100 Hrs and saw that both the scheduler pop ups had stalled @ 0%.
I opened the main GUI (Checkin' for stowaways) and noticed the the same indication, both stalled @ 0%.
This laptop is always plugged in (18.5" laptop = 2.5 Hr battery life).
When PC is in sleep mode, after waking it up, I have to unlock it with a password/finger print swipe.
Both ADMIN and USER accounts are logged on.
Both ADMIN and USER accounts are locked with Digital Persona Identity Protection Suite 4.11.3826.
I'm browse/mail from the USER ACCOUNT.
avast! Scheduler(s) show the same settings in both the ADMIN and the USER account.
Admin account is logged on, but not open, I'm in the user account.
avast! is not password protected.
There is only me using this PC.

QUESTION............
Is there something I need to do with the Windows Task Scheduler to make this feature work?
I'm still new to W7 home Premium and still don't know the OS fully.
Any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanks....
And don't have a,
































PICKLE ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
