J Jupiter Jones [MVP] Sep 14, 2005 #2 If the computer is shutdown, obviously a scan can not be performed, automatic or otherwise.
B Bill Sanderson Sep 14, 2005 #3 You are not the first one to ask that question. The machine must be powered on with an administrator user logged in for the scan to be performed.
