You can schedule NAV to run at a particular time - but it checks ALL drives
at that time. I have too much capacity on all my drives - so that it takes
NAV close to two days to run. So, I'd like to break it up into pieces and
only run checks that I can run overnight. Is there away to do this? The
Symantec newsgroup had been no help.

Inside NAV pick on 'scan for virus' then pick on 'new'
button and follow the wizard to setup desired drives. A
new option will appear that you can schedule.
 
2 days to run? WOW!!!
Before tunning antivirus/spyware software delete these
items:
cookies...
temp internet files...
history...
recycle bin files...
any files you don't want...

No sense checking these for virus
also turn off the screensaver and turn monitor off.
also schedule other items at different time.
 
Thanks - now I understand!!!!!!!!!!
