Spybot

Hey everyone!

I hope you are all well..and that you can help me.

I recently got Spybot S & D but i notice it scans EVERY time I go on the comp..even if i go on it 2-3 times a day, further it also scans on the other account...i.e when my mum, sis and bro sign on!

It is possible for it only to scan once a day and to be a bit more discreet...as I don't have a clue and my fam CERTAINTLY don't have a clue about this things...

Thanks as always

QT x

    When Spybot is loaded, select Mode->Advanced Mode from the menu. Click YES to go into Advanced Mode.

    Then click setting from left hand side. Now select the settings sub-menu, and then in the right hand window find the Automation group.

    Here you can change what happens when the program starts or when your pc starts. Change settings accordingly. This should solve your problem.
