1401649 2015-05-30 22:24:00 Have finally installed Nod32!

There seems to have lots settings in the 'Advanced setup' menu. Is there anything in particular that I need to change from the default settings?

Cheers

1401650 2015-05-30 22:52:00 I mostly leave it alone except for:

What actions you want it to do: delete, quarantine etc...
Setup when I want it to do a full scan (mine is Sunday, once a week)
Notifications : I tell it to shut up about Windows auto updates being off

And how it notifies you, text, sound and stuff like tool tips etc...

Thats about it.

1401651 2015-05-31 00:00:00 Have a look Here shortly, I'll make a quick video of how I set it up, its actually quite quick. A Video will be a lot easier than writing it all out, just need to install a screen capture program :) wainuitech (129)

OK its done, just uploaded to a video sharing site so it can play directly. BUT its waiting in line to convert 36 minutes till it starts.

Its a fresh install Of Nod32, never been rolled bowled or ar**Holed:eek:

Its how I set them up, I had to slow down to 1/4 speed as I normally go through the tasks a lot quicker.

SWMBO insisted we have a few drinks earlier :D, so right at the end I had to double check I had done one task.

If you dont want to wait for the online version, its also been uploaded to www.filefactory.com Its 11MB in WMV format. Plays fine in Windows Media Player. To Download it, click the above link - Scroll down to the bottom of the page, on the right - Slow Download - Wait 30 Seconds -- Dodge any popups, and after the timer finished a download link appears.

I'll post the link to the online version when its available.

You'll see I untick some items and tick others, as well as adjust other settings.

When Setting up a System Scan ( call it what ever you like) you set the time and day that suits yourself, as long as the computer is on it will scan at that time.

Back to the drink pouring, someones complaining her glass is empty. :wub

1401654 2015-05-31 07:21:00 Online Viewing version ( I hope) You can also download it from the same site vimeo.com

Note: When setting up a System Scan, you can select Full Scan instead of Smart Scan if you want. It takes longer, but I've found its not really needed, as when it does a "first Scan" which I leave ticked, it does a full scan anyway.

Personally even though its set to scan weekly mine never finds anything as its already stopped any infections. Even running other antimalware programs they all come back clean.

1401655 2015-05-31 10:48:00 Well Done, wainuitech.

Set mine up accordingly.

Thanks.

1401656 2015-05-31 21:36:00 Vimeo wouldn't let me download without joining so used videodownload helper on Firefox which worked a treat. gary67 (56)
1401657 2015-05-31 21:56:00 How do I set Nod32 to prompt me on what action to take (delete, quarantine or allow) when it 'found' a 'threat', rather than just delete it straight away? bk T (215)
1401658 2015-05-31 22:29:00 Thanks wainuitech. Neil McC (178)
