1248529	2011-12-14 06:09:00	It's my duty every Friday night after a few beers ... turn off system restore, run CCleaner (1 stubby), Spybot (2 stubby), Malwarebytes (3 Stubby), SuperAnitspyware (4 Stubby), and MSSE (1 stubby quick scan - 2 for a full) ... then, because I'm running XP, I also use Defraggler. I must admit that I am usually quite Fraggled myself by the time I start Defraggler and forget to switch System restore back on ... but hey, that's Saturday mornings job anyway ... :D	SP8's (9836)

1248532	2011-12-14 06:45:00	I only do a manual scan when MSE reminds me :p	pcuser42 (130)
1248533	2011-12-14 07:17:00	Whats a security check? :p	icow (15313)
1248534	2011-12-14 07:30:00	Ccleaner runs automatically every day. Nod32 runs automatically every Friday while doing the shopping. SuperAntispyware I set going just before going out to do shopping, so its done by the time I get back. Spybot once a month, but never finds anything.	wainuitech (129)
1248535	2011-12-14 07:58:00	Most of my security is in real-time with Comodo Defense+ and other preventative measures like Spybot browser immunization.	Agent_24 (57)
1248536	2011-12-14 08:14:00	Never (Linux) :D	sahilcc7 (15483)
1248537	2011-12-14 08:35:00	As I run Linux I only do it when I have a Windows HD or box attached to my PC.	mikebartnz (21)
