![]() ![]() This time the Virus Scan kicked into life at the appropriate time and went past the 3107 mark. I then tried a scheduled scan by changing my settings. I installed that recently but as it was downloaded direct through Microsoft I doubt there was a virus attached. It was the same file - I think something to do with Office 2010 Professional Plus but can't be 100% sure. Tried to run several manual scans last night and all of them froze around 1% after 3107 files. I have recently installed Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 and the latest iTunes but there appears to be no problems with either. Is it possible the automatic updater is interrupting it and that's why it stalls for 10 minutes? Is it possible the scan is now being halted by other activity on the computer? When I run a manual scan, I tend to leave the computer to its own devices until it finishes in about an hour. ![]() The automatic updater clearly doesn't work unless you leave the computer alone for 10 minutes (something I rarely do) so I have to manually update each day which is a right royal pain. The current version of McAfee does not have a particularly good track record in my experience. However, there is evidence of problems with other McAfee users, so is this a McAfee problem? ![]() I left it alone and, after 10 minutes or so, it started up again and completed the scan - again with no issues or problems.Ĭan I ask why is it freezing like this? Obviously I can't rule out the possibility of a virus but I'm normally pretty careful and there is no evidence of one. I decided to run the scan again and this time it got to 40% before it appeared to stop working (on a different file completely). I looked on this forum and noticed others with similar complaints. Today I ran another manual scan which froze at 1% after scanning about 3,000 files. Last week I ran a manual scan which worked fine, showed no infections or problems but seemed to take a long time (certainly longer than a scheduled scan). Greetings from Britain - the home of Royal romance!!!Ĭan you please give me some advice on this. ![]()
