MessageI'm not sure if the scan will take place if your computer is switched 
off at the time of the scheduled scan.

  Hello Bill,

  thank you so much.

  But can the scheduled scan also take place while the computer is switched off.

  I mean to say, for example, if my scheduled scan is Sunday around 12 p.m. and 
my computer is not switched on at that time but hours later.

  I have noticed on such a scenario that no scanning is reported in terms of 
the schedule.

  Is the scheduled scan then ignored?

  Do I then have to do the scanning manually?

  I hope my explanation is clear enough.

  thank you once again for any feedback.

  Regards,  smart

    When MSE does a scan, it can slow down other programs and processes.  This 
is because MSE uses some of your memory and processor time.

    When the box:
    "Start scheduled scan only when my computer is in use".
    is unchecked, you can walk away from your computer and let the scan take 
place while it is not in use, and when you return it will be done.  You avoid 
having the scan being done while you are doing something important.  Otherwise, 
JAWS might seem sluggish, or stop talking altogether for a while.

      Hi all,

      Please can someone tell me what difference it makes in the settings of 
MSe to check or uncheck the option:
      "Start scheduled scan only when my computer is in use".

      thank you so muchfor your help.

      Best regards,  smart

        The best free anti virus program to use with JAWS 9 is Microsoft 
Security Essentials.  It is more JAWS friendly and lighter on resources than 
Avast and AVG.
