Username/password For Scanning


Subgud

Recommended Posts

I wonder why I have to type my username&password to sett up a scheduled scan. Seems a bit strange. If it is for scanning with priviliges why dont all the other AV vendors ask for this? Kaspersky, Symantec, Panda,Bitdefender, Norman etc etc dont ask for your username&password when setting up a scheduled scan.

 

So is it possible to schedule a scan without giving away my personal data? I dont like that. Are there any possibility that these data can be taken and sendt to Immunet?

We noticed this error and in future versions this won't happen. However Immunet doesn't receive your data, for a more technical information about this, I'll inform Millard.

You can run a scheduled scan even now, but you have to have the password for the user run. We noticed that the password for a scheduled scan isn't the best, with version 3.0 this will certainly be resolved.

I've just downloaded version 3 & this problem persists. Like Jorgen, I can't remember my Windows XP password.

 

I won't update to the paid version unless I can schedule scans. Is this problem likely to be fixed anytime soon?

The version 3.0 as 2.0 with ClamAV added for offline protection, I don't know about when this issue is fixed, but it's under work, I call Millard for respond to your question about the fix.

It should be addressed by the last week of February. The solution is (for people who cannot remember their password) is that it will need to run the scan while the user is logged in. If you log off at night, then there is little we can do as MS requires us to be authenticated to run the scan through the scheduler.
