Default SUGGESTION: Schedule Scan should run as a Service.


Allow the SpyWare Scheduled Scan to run as a service.
Most systems in our office are at the logon prompt at
2:00am, but since MSAS Scheduled Scans run as a program,
not a service - only the machines where users forgot to
logoff are scanned. Since leaving a user logged in is a
physical security risk - we've implemented policies that
auto-logoff users; which of course prevents the MSAS from
running a scan.

It would be nice to have MSAS run as a Service, I probably don't think you
will see it in the final release and will be targetted an Enterprise Edition
with features for Central Management and Group Policy.
