If I disable Autoscan I am assuming that BD 2013 is still monitoring my emails and incoming net traffic for threats just not doing a scan for potential threats on my computer.......?
Thanks in advance,
AB
Hi AB, and welcome
Yes, that is correct, all of your real time protection is still active, including AV on accessing scanning, and AVC. You will just have the intermediate non critical issue color (yellow/gold) on your system tray icon, and the upper toolbar.
You should then consider running a System Scan more often, say weekly, as compared to every 2 weeks or so (with Autoscan on, the manual says ~1 a month) The Autoscan uses very little resources, and only runs during idle times, and IMHO, I would rather have that run then doing more power hungry System Scans (open Task Manager/Performance, while doing a System Scan)
Hope this helped,
Scott
Ok Scott - thanks for the confirmation.
Best,
