Avast! antivirus is free software that I recommend for home use computers. It is great and protects you for free on a windows machine, you can’t beat that!

A few people asked me how to schedule a boot scan before letting window start.

To schedule boot scan using Avast, follow the steps below:

• Right click on the Avast system tray icon
• Click on “Start Avast Anti Virus”
• Avast anti virus window will pop up and run a memory scan
• Once memory scan finish, you can right click on the Avast anti virus window and select “Schedule Boot Time Scan”
• “Schedule Boot Time Scan” window will popup, select “Scan all local disk” and check on “Advanced Options” and you can go from there

…hope this helps
