I have Norton anti virus on my machine and I want to scan my computer once a
week. I have it set in the scheduler to do so, but it only runs if I am
logged on. If I am logged off (which I will be since I want it to run at
2am) it doesnt run. I went to the knowledge base and couldnt find anything
that works. I entered a password for my account but that didnt work.

Will the Scheduler only work while the use is logged on? If so, thats kind
of useless isnt it? I dont want the virus scan running when I am using the
computer, thats the beauty of a scheduler.

Should I be using a script? I dont know what they are or how to use them
but is that the solution? I have some other programs that I would like to
schedule in the middle of the night but whats the point if it doesnt run

any help would be appreciated
