I am a paid subscriber and use AVAST religiously. Quick scan every night, full scan and boot time scan once a week.
why all this scanning?
you have a antivirus program with realtime protection, meaning it works silently in the background, scanning every file that moves in the computer when it is on.
and bootscan is not meant to be used as a regular scanner, it is a special tool to be used if/when avast detect something and have problems removing it, or if the program itselfe tell you to run it
a quick scan a week is plenty
