    I have NOD32 installed on 4 machines. After doing a clean XP re-install on one, I can't seem to get a scheduled scan to start. The other three machines are fine as are the other apps I have set up to auto-run: ewido, GBM, ATI & FD-ISR.

    Here's my setup:

    1) Add Scheduled Task
    2) NOD32 Kernel - Exec of an external app
    3) Enter Task Name |Daily C Scan|
    4) Run the Task : Daily
    5) Run the Task at : 1:45
    6) Run task immediately... 400hrs
    7) Show dialogue for spec options is checked |Finish|
    :cool: Run external app : C:\Program Files\Eset\nod32.exe
    9) Command Line : C:\ /adware /ah /all /arch+ /clean /cleanmode /delete /heur+ /log+
    /mailbox+ /ntfs+ /pack+ /quarantine /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /scanmem+ /scroll+ /sfx+ /unsafe /wrap+ /exclude=$ISR /quit+
    10) OK
    11) Run Now

    It does, but it doesn't run at sched time o_O 1:45 comes and goes and not a peep from NOD32

    The task scheduler is probably working fine. It knows you have test run it and would wait until tomorrow before it thinks it need to launch a scan.

    ie. Based on the set schedule, has this task been run since the last time it ought to have? If yes then wait till the next scheduled time and check again, if no then go ahead and execute the task.

    Cheers :)

    Yeah, since it didn't run correctly last night / this morning I ran through the settings again today, also completeing a |Run Now|

    If it doesn't auto-run tomorrow morning, what will manually excuting the task accomplish?

    If you have run it manually in between scheduled times with 'run now' then next time it comes up via schedule it gets skipped (it's been run already since it's last scheduled time), so if it fails to run in the morning it's possibly just because you have manually run it. You would have to wait until the next occurence after that to see if it runs properly on it's own... and without running it again in the mean time :)
