11.4. Scan Scheduling
With AVG Internet Security 2014 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.
The scan schedule can be created / edited in the Scheduled scans dialog that is accessible via the Manage
scheduled scan button within the Scan options dialog. In the new Scheduled Scan dialog you can see a
complete overview of all currently scheduled scans:
In the dialog you can specify your own scans. Use the Add scan schedule button to create a new scan
schedule of your own. The parameters of the scheduled scan can be edited (or a new schedule set up) on
three tabs:
