ad aware scheduled to scan automatically?

mark kal · Nov 21, 2005

i have used the Scheduled Tasks function of Win xp pro to automatically run Ad-aware SE pro every evenning. Ad-aware SE pro "opens" ok but does not automatically "scan". There is an automatic scanning option in the startup tab of the configuration utility, however this appears to work only on system startup. any thoughts on how to get the scan to start automatically?

Their should be an option in the Ad-Aware SE Pro menus to select a scheduled scan? ( per week/day/hour ) The windows scheduler would only start the app and not run a scan, this should be able to be set from within Ad-Aware ( read the limited support doc earlier ).

I looked through all the options in ad aware, but nothing seemed to apply or work.

I thought some time of switch like /AUTO might work.

if you pay for professional edition i would assume that it will let you set scan points, if you have personal edition (free) it does not
