Hi,

Is it somehow possible to prevent scheduled scans from running when they have not been run as scheduled? If I have a scan scheduled for 2:30 am and my computer happens to be off this scan starts as soon as the machine comes up again. I would like for that not to happen, but rather have the scan performed the next night at 2:30 am. However, I can't figure out how to do it.

I have never noticed this before! I don't believe my scheduled scans have ever done that, but I haven't scheduled any scans for a while now. Are you scheduling them via the ClamWin Scanning Preferences? What sort of setup do you have?

Regards,

I am using ClamWin's scheduling interface, not the Windows task scheduler. The problem I am having is on my laptop which sometimes gets turned off at night. The result is that the scan starts as soon a I fire up the laptop again. I am running Windows Vista SP2.
