MessageI'm not sure about your first question but as for scanning, I run 
programs all the time during a scheduled scan.

  Hi all,

  Can someone tell me the implication of the following setting in MSE when it 
is checked:
  "Start scheduled scan only when my computer is on but not in use"

  Does "not in use" mean closing all running applications and wait until the 
scheduled scan is finished. And how will I know that this is the case?

  On the other hand, if this setting is unchecked, can the scheduled scan still 
take place automatically while I launch and work on applications at the same 
time?

  Thanks and regards,  smart
