Automate Virus scans

I didnt get you properly.. What do you mean by automate? Do you want to make your AV to run automatically on a setted time?? Is it what u r trying to say. Also, which AV you are talking about???
 
You can set up an automated scan using Avast Antivirus. You can also set up a scheduled boot time scan
 
Is there a program that will do all fo my virus scans at the same time? I have avast!, Ad-aware, Spybot S&D, and A-Squared. Is their a program that will run them at a set time? Thanks.
 
I use the Scheduled Tasks tools which comes with Windows:

Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Scheduled Tasks

Then add all the programs you want to run at specific dates & times.

When the time comes just select the opened programs scan option.

Click to expand...

Yes, but it would be quite simple to just start the scan from there.

otherwise you can start Spybot - Search & Destroy to full automated scan & exit (when finished):

1. Load Spybot S&D
2. Mode > Advanced Mode; when prompted click 'Yes'.
3. Navigate to 'Settings' (bottom left).
4. Navigate to 'Scheduler'.
5. Click 'Add' & configure your scan settings.

Hope this helps.
