Recently I installed NOD32 2.7.32 (trial) and I must say I'm impressed with it's speed and low footprint but I have a nasty issue may be you can help me with.

From time to time, when rebooting or shuting down Windows and error dialog appears and stops from doing those actions because NOD can't find -I presume- a floppy disk to scan. I then have to choose between "cancelar, omitir o continuar".

I tried to work around this happening by adding A:\ to the exclude list in the AMON module but it not works. Then, I tried to find any option that lets me choose don't scan floppy boot sector when exiting but haven't found any.

Any help on this will we much appreciated, because I really like this product but I can't use it in any serious working environment.

I wonder how difficult is to do a simple thing that's obvious in many other antivirus packaged, most of them a fraction of powerfull as NOD is.

Thanks in advance.

HiTech, thanks for your reply, I must be blind to miss the "Shutdown" checkbox at the Scan boot sectors panel... :-[

I think unchecking it will work, sorry and thank you 1 more time for your fast replying :)
