mountaintree16 Posted March 19, 2010 ID:217388 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I was checking the reports log on the Vista I keep tabs on that I've installed Avira free on.Well, I saw in the log that the scans had been carried out, but the main page of the interface says no scan for a little over a month now! :/ I have it set to scan three times a week. Turns out the scan was aborted each time (by someone, nothing on the computer was actually stopping the scan), which I found out when checking the details of the scan logs.Currently the scan mode display is on minimized.My question is, what is invisible display mode like? I was considering changing the mode to that so that hopefully its not going to get aborted anymore! I am also going to have a chat with them about it; the scan shouldn't be getting stopped anyhow.Updates get through totally fine though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxi Posted March 19, 2010 ID:217412 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Hi mountaintree16, I also use avira free but on xp. I am not having this problem wheather I'm on invisable mode or maximised mode. It sounds like something is stopping the scan from finishing. You should I think sit down and watch a scan and see where it gets terminated. This might point you in the right direction.

mountaintree16 Posted March 19, 2010 Author ID:217414 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Thanks for your reply, Maxi I am running a scan right now and it just finished Someone is physically stopping the scan; nothing on the computer is actually aborting it. Thanks for the idea, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mountaintree16 Posted March 19, 2010 Author ID:217416 Share Posted March 19, 2010 hehe I am going to have a talk with them... scan needs to NOT be aborted, lol.I was just wondering if anyone had experience with what invisible scan mode is with a scheduled Avira scan.. I was thinking that way it would be more difficult for someone to stop the scan I already knew someone was actually stopping the scan, bleh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
