Default Scan very slow?!


HI, it took me 5 hours to do the scan when Beta 1 took only 20-25 minutes to
scan my computer.

Does anybody have that problem?

Thanks!

Default Re: Scan very slow?!

Here are some tips:

Start, run, eventvwr.msc.

Click on the system event log, go to View, Filter, and choose Source
WinDefend, apply

Open a given log record and use the up and down arrows to see start and end
of scans and stats.

Also--look for mpcmdrun.log an ascii text log file in %windir%\temp
