| Task Is Not Running on Idle Hi, Looking for help please. I've just got a brand new laptop with Vista. New antivirus software was also purchased and installed. It is set to run the scan when computer is idle but that's not happening. Is there something that I can do to check my computer's settings to see that this is allowed cause I'm not sure what else to do to make this happen (?). I checked the advanced settings for my antivirus software and it's set to run at 4am but it doesn't and is running now. PS - My computer/technical knowledge is basic. Thanks in advance. -- Elle Emme Posted via [url]http://www.vistaheads.com[/url]      |

Thanks in advance.[/color] Perhaps the antivirus software maker is the one to ask for help. -- Gene E. Bloch letters0x40blochg0x2Ecom |

Thanks in advance.[/color] What is the name of the anti-virus , and when is the system idle ? Usually you need a password for the scheduled time . |
