The schedule scan does not start up as scheduled.

For example: I set the scan to start every day at 2 A.M.
I update the scan schedule throght the update botton. It
acknowledges the new setting but when I come back a few
days later, the scan hat I ran, let say the 16th of the
month is still the last scan that the program ran.

On other computers, it works well but not on everyone. Do
we always have to be loged on as administrator even to set
the schedule time? Even that I'm not sure if it will fix
it. I'll do some testing while a anwer arise.
 
As Andre says--you always need to be logged on as administrator. If there
is an administrator logged in at 2 AM on the machine with the problem, try
an update install--control panel, add or remove programs, Microsoft
Antispyware, change, update.
