Not sure there's a selection for a non-Windows function, but it's Control 
Panel, Sounds and Audio devices, and the second page there.

  Subject: Where is the "Sounds Schemes Setting"?


  Dear Sam and friends,
  This is a great idea!
  Never thought of creating a "Sound" when the scan is complete!

  I wonder if  there is an option in the "Sounds Schemes" that one can select 
to play a wav file?

  But it has been such a long time since I set up all my sounds, "Delete", 
"open" etc., etc., I forgot how to do this!
  Where does one go to find their Sound Schemes settings?

  Thanks!
  With Best Regards,
  Alan

    Thanks. Smiles. I've noticed the system tray thing. I meant like a sound or 
something.

      Hi, Samara.  I haven't used MS Essentials, but when I used AVG, there was 
always something in the system tray that would let me know a scan is in 
progress.  If that doesn't work, try ALT+TAB to see if there is a virus scan 
window available.

        Yeah I definitely realized that. Laughs. I set it for when I'll be 
getting ready for bed. While I'm reading, I'll let it scan and turn it off 
before I'm done. I just wish I had a way of knowing when the scan ended.

          Yes, it is OK to have everything (scans and updates) happen at the 
same time.  It is best to have them happen when you won't be using the computer 
for disk drive and processor-intensive operations.  While scanning and 
updating, AVG will slow your computer down, and your JAWS may also lose focus 
in the window you want it to be in.

            Thank you. I was able to do that. Is it okay to make everything 
happen at the same time? The scans and the updates?

              Hi Samara;

              you can change the AVG'S scanning schedule, and, when the program 
updates.

              I'm not using AVG right now, however,
              if you open AVG, now, go to tools, then, advanced, you should be 
able to change the above mentioned settings their.

                Oh cool! Maybe I'll do that. Grins. I'm new with AVG, so I'll 
have to fiddle around with it to see how to change the scan times and such. 
Thank you!

                LOLOLOLOL about the MS essentials thing.

                  Dear Sam,
                  I have the paid version of AVG now, but I used the FREE 
version for many years and it is true, it does slow down your computer a bit, 
depending how much RAM you have I suppose, so yes, I set it to do a "Full 
System" scan late at night when I am less active on my computer, reading a book 
or listening to a dvs movie or whatever.

                  Yes you must use the jaws cursor, but very easy that way to 
negotiate anything!

                  Most folks will not agree with me, but I simply do not trust 
the same people who allowed such security holes or cracks in your Operating 
System, (Microsoft) to give you something to stop viruses, mal ware, spy ware!

                  And mark my words, it will not be "Free" forever, just till 
Microsoft believe they have captured the market, destroyed the anti-virus 
program manufacturers, then they shall drop the bomb shell that it will now 
cost you!
                  LOL!
                  An old marketing trick!

                  I shall keep this message, so I can say "I told you so"!

                  AVG has never let me down,!
                  You can purchase a AVG Disk which comes with a 2 year 
subscription to New definitions, Off-The-Shelf, in any computer store for $29, 
cheaper than on their Web Site!
                  Why cheaper purchased in a store, I have no idea!
                  But it updates twice a day, and I trust it completely!

                  With Best Regards,

                    Hi. I have AVG 9.0 free on my computer. I've heard it's 
accessible, and it is to a certain extent, but it's all jaws cursor. Is that 
how it's supposed to be? I'd ask about it slowing down jaws, but I think that's 
just because it makes the entire computer crawl.

                    I've also heard about MS Essentials. Some of you have 
recommended it. I tried it on my laptop when one care was discontinued, but 
windows security didn't seem to recognize that there was protection on the 
computer and kept giving me warnings. I've a desktop now, windows XP, jaws 10, 
and I just wanted to know before I made a decision to either switch AVG scans 
to late at night when they won't interfere with me or to switch completely to 
ms essentials, is that normal? For the windows security manager not to 
recognize ms essentials? Does it run that quietly? And how do I know for 
certain that it's working if I keep getting warnings?

                    Thanks so much.

                    Sam
