How do I schedule a scan in Max Secure Anti Virus?

To schedule the Max Secure Anti Virus follow the following steps:

1. Open the main Interface of the Product and click on the Scheduler button on the main interface, a scheduler window will open.
   
   
2. The window has the four fields as given below, select the options you want and click on the OK button to schedule the scan
   a. Scan Options
   b. Scan Time
   c. On Detection
   d. After scan is complete
3. Scan Options
   Here you have following options,
   i. Quick Scan: Scans the hard drive where the operating system is installed.
   
   ii. Full Scan: Scans all the selected hard drives present on the computer (this includes the signature scanning). You can also select the Individual drive here for signature scanning.
   
   Rootkit Scan: Rootkit Scan is based on generic, heuristics scan. A rootkit is a set of software tools intended to hide running processes, files or system data from the operating system. A rootkit substitutes malicious code in place of legitimate Operating System routines. It does so in a highly stealth-like manner by turning off certain security routines. They are difficult to detect. Rootkits are difficult to clean as they ingranulate deeply within the Registry and system files.
   
   Virus Scan: Virus Scan is a signature based virus detecting and repairing scan engine. Viruses insert their malicious code in the files of operating system and other installed software like Yahoo Messenger etc. Hence every subsequent execution of such virus code inserted file also does the malicious activity intended by the malicious code along with the file's usual activity. The virus scanner engine detects such inserted code in these files and removes them, thus the file gets repaired and can be used with no risk.
   
   Deep Scan: Deep Scan option does special threat scan through out the drive so that Max Secure Anti Virus catches more special threat entries. It takes more time in first scan but subsequent scan will take less time to scan special threat on the drive.
