I'm wondering if it is Adequate enough to just have Kaspersky IS 7 just scan my C: Drive instead of enabling everything else ??? When you click on the magnifying glass where it says scan, as there are other check boxes for Documents and mail databases. In the Critical areas System memory/Startup objects/Disk boot sectors/C:Windows and C:Windows\system32 are checked.
In My Computer, System memory/Startup objects/System backup storeage/Mail databases/All Hard Drives and All Removeable drives are checked and greyed out.
In Startup objects, System memory/Startup objects and Disk Boot Sectors are checked
and in Rootkit Scan, My Computer is checked.

In the setting\Scan Window I have everything checked to do not prompt and to disinfect and delete auromatically, and only My Computer checked as run mode at 10:30pm each Friday. is this sufficient? or do I need to enable something else ???

Have you made some tweak lately? Because I also have KAV 7 (don't know exactly about KIS) with default settings and:

*In the Critical areas System memory/Startup objects/Disk boot sectors/C:Windows and C:Windows\system32: everything is checked.
*In My Computer, System memory/Startup objects/System backup storeage/Mail databases/All Hard Drives/All Removeable drives and All Network Drives: everything but 'all network drives' is checked and active (not greyed out).
*In Startup objects, System memory/Startup objects and Disk Boot Sectors: everything is checked.
*In Rootkit Scan: My Computer is checked.

These settings differs a bit from yours. I customized these only for proxy server, update, reports and appearance.
