I hadn't considered that but maybe I will. The weird thing is I haven't added anything significant lately, and not long ago, with version 4, it...
Thanks.....and I have another thread going about this issue.:) I did try version 4, same thing. No other security programs that would conflict. I...
I've been using NOD32 for a very long time, and now with version 5, my scan times are ridiculously long, and so is the startup scan. ESET customer...
They sent me some new configuration to import in, and said to try it with that. It didn't change a thing. The lady actually called my house and...
ESET emailed back, completely ignored my question about the length of scan times, and focused on changing my settings for the startup scan, so I...
I wouldn't mind, but the first scan with version 5 took an hour and forty minutes. I've never had a scan take that long, so that's why I came...
First off, It's not a Celeron processor, and these scan times are at a time when NOTHING else is running in the background. There is about 8gb...
Yes, everything is deleted in the recycle bin, and all temp files, etc. etc. I do that just about daily. I'm running XP, and I have a Pentium4...
With all due respect, how does that relate to my hour and a half scan time? Can you tell me why my scans are an hour and a half. Even when I...
Well, I stand corrected. :) I guess I just assumed that, because in version 4, I don't believe you could disable it. At least that's what I seem...
No it isn't. There isn't a way to turn off the startup scan in version 5, or in version 4.
I might add that I am talking about a paid version for recommendations. I think I have it down to Avast, Avira Premium, or maybe BitDefender.
Yeah, I've always run a scan once a week, but I'm not putting up with this hour and a half scan crap, or the 3-5 minute startup scan. Unless I...
Is there a way to turn off the startup scan in version 5?
Yeah, I'm noticing that Avast and Avira are both up there in popularity and in the independent testing.
I've had NOD32 for a long time, and I'm having an issue with the length of scan times right now, and the length of time on the startup scan....
So you don't run full system scans on a regular basis? I never looked at that way, I just figured it was a good idea to do it. The real time...
Well, with the archives and self extracting archives unchecked, it only took 10 minutes off the scan. A huge drop in the number of objects...
I'll give it a try. Could that possibly be slowing my startup scan as well?
I did that yesterday, and even tried version 4....same thing, an hour and a half. Uninstalled that, put version 5 back on, no difference. I hope...
I'm assuming you mean uncheck the boxes next to archives and self extracting archives, yes?
It's always connected to the internet. And no, the scan last night with the configuration a few posts back, took an hour and a half. I have no...
Thanks! Yeah, my scans are now taking an hour and a half as well, so I'm ready to get rid of this program. I used to think it was great, not now.
Yeah, I noticed it today. It's even more of a pain in the ass now. Today it started up after a few minutes and again, held my computer hostage for...
How do I do that? And, when I ran the test with this configuration last night, it still took an hour and a half. Plus, the startup scan is taking...
