Can these to programs be configured to scan automatically at a predetermined
intervals? If so, how?

Thanks in advance... Bob

Hey Bob;

Both Ad-Aware (SE personal v6.181) and Spybot (v1.3) can be set to
automagically scan at start up. Spybot also can be scheduled. It
doesn't appear that Ad-Aware can be however.

I found it in SpyBot but when I tried to save the timed operation I got an
error message "you do not have permission to perform the requested
operation". I am the administrator with all privileges on XP Pro. Any
ideas?

Go to Control Panel and click on
"Scheduled Tasks"
In XP you can select a program to schedule.
