Displaying a scheduled scan

Hi! I'm new to NOD32, and I just configured a daily scan, which occured on schedule this morning. My problem is the scan was progressing(HD activity), but there was no visual display of the progress. Is there a way to monitor a scheduled scan?

 

use this tool

That's disappointing! Even the chinziest of anti-malware prgms provide as a minimum, an animated task bar icon, as an alert, that a background task is in progress. The better ones provide the option for on screen monitioring.

 

To me its not a big deal, since the scan always seem to run. I have enough icons, so I can do without another scan status icon. I really like that the program does its job without being intrusive.

If you must, you can look in the control center log window and see that a scan is running. Clicking on the log file also will tell you if there are any issues.

 

To each, his own! Personally, If I happen to be at my PC, and abrupt, prolonged HD activity occurs, I want to determine if it's normal or an attack! A simple alert would take out some of the guess work

 

There you have a point. This happens with me and diskeeper version 11 which does a lot of I/O without any icon. At times I wonder if the diskeeper I/O overhead is worse than the possible fragmentation.

ESET could have a scan status icon as an option.

 

This unrelated, but I trashed Diskeeper a long time ago(bloated code, hi cpu overhead)for PerfectDisk. Try it, you'll like it.

 

Diskeeper works quite good if you just set it to defrag when the screensaver is active.
But yeah use that tool, it was made for the sole purpose of letting you know when a scan is about to begin, a feature I miss in NOD32 too

 

I did and found the opposite

To all:

Let's get back to the Displaying a scheduled scan discussion and take the other product chit chat to a more appropriate forum Please.

Thanks,
