NOT Scheduling

W

Call it a bug, call it a feature...

I run Microsoft Anti-Spyware on a workstation computer
that's rarely turned on, and always turned off after
using. Scheduling scans just isn't appropriate on this
machine. Since there isn't really a way to turn the Anti-
Spyware scheduling feature "off", I found a workaround.

I set the schedule to "monthly", and entered the 32nd day
of the month for the scan. This will cause no
unscheduled interruptions due to the scan starting when
I'm busy with other things, and I run a complete manual
scan weekly.

Otherwise, a great product! Best I've used.

To turn the scan schedule off, just check "Disable schedule", then click
"Update schedule"
