Thanks to you both.
It looks like me and the software won’t be getting along too well.
When ‘configuring’ it asked if I wanted to schedule a boot time scan. I said yes. That implied to me that the boot time scan would be scheduled EVERY boot.
Now I see, from your good words here, that this is not the case.
Trouble is, I spent more than half an hour looking all over the place to turn it off because I assumed that “schedule” meant “schedule”.
It also seems that I have to change e-mail settings to get e-mail scanning to work. That looks like a problem to me.
I also SOMETIMES get 2 icons in systray, this time 1. And I see no obvious way to get the “VRDB” database generated without that icon. IF it’s in the “Enhanced user interface” then it isn’t obvious to me.
I’ll see how things go for a few more days, but right now it’s looking like the interface is not matching my simple level of intuition.
