12.5. Scan Scheduling
With AVG Internet Security 2012 you can run scan on demand (for instance when you suspect an
infection has penetrated your computer) or based on a scheduled plan. It is highly recommended
that you run the scans based on a schedule: this way you can make sure your computer is
protected from any possibility of getting infected, and you will not have to worry about if and when to
launch the scan.
You should launch the Whole Computer scan regularly, at least once a week. However, if possible,
launch the scan of your entire computer daily - as set up in the scan schedule default configuration.
If the computer is "always on" then you can schedule scans out of working hours. If the computer is
sometimes switched off, then schedule scans to occur on computer start-up when the task has
been missed.
To create new scan schedules, see the AVG scanning interface and find the bottom section called
Schedule scans:
