I anted to know in case you were in an envirobnemnt where ePO (ePolicy Orchestrator) was in
use. Thus a corporate policy may have been instituted to cause a McAfee Command Line
Scanner scan to be luanched. If it is a singlar computer not in a corporate environment I
can't see why the Command Line Scanner would be lauched. One would think the GUI scanner
would be launched.

Hi Dave,
I couldn't find out what you suggested. Could you be more specific? In
Virus-Scan console of McAfee there are no settings related to auto-
scan except scheduling. SO?

I'm sorry, I didn't make a suggestion, more of a comment.

The comment being the software would schedule a GUI based scan and not yuse the command line
scanner.

I am sorry for not being clearer.

I can't see a reason McAfee itself would schedule a command line scanner scan. As you noted
you checked the VirusScan Consile Scheduled tasks.

Have you checked the Scheduled Taks applet in Control Panel ?
