Avast! antivirus is free software that I recommend for home use computers. It is great and protects you for free on a windows machine, you can’t beat that!
A few people asked me how to schedule a boot scan before letting window start.
To schedule boot scan using Avast, follow the steps below:
- Right click on the Avast system tray icon
- Click on “Start Avast Anti Virus”
- Avast anti virus window will pop up and run a memory scan
- Once memory scan finish, you can right click on the Avast anti virus window and select “Schedule Boot Time Scan”
- “Schedule Boot Time Scan” window will popup, select “Scan all local disk” and check on “Advanced Options” and you can go from there
…hope this helps
