Hey everyone, I know Microsoft AntiSpyware program is new but does anyone know how to schedule it so it will scan at 2am no matter who is logged on. The problem is that it is scheduled to run as the Administrator through the program but when a user logs in it does not scan. Maybe there is someway I can set it up in Scheduled Tasks??? Also, I have to use Microsoft AntiSpyware because my boss says so. I know I can probably set it up in every users accounts but they way things are set up here is would take too long. Thanks for the help.

I know it doesn't work. Try Spybot or adaware. You can get them from teh software page on www.supportmycomputer.com

That information unfortunately does not help that is how I have it set up but when another user logs on it does not scan. I would love to use spybot or adaware but as I said my boss wants to use Microsoft for some odd reason. Thanks anyway. Anyone else have any suggestions please.

Nevermind, apparently the computers I was testing the program on were being shutdown at night making it so it couldn't run. I have advised them not to shut down the computers anymore so the scan can properly run. Thanks anyway.
