buggerup Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Hi Guys I have a annoying little issue. I use McAfee SecurityCentre which I've paid for so i'm stuck with it. It does a scan every day and every day it gets caught on the ORBX scenery files. I think the zip files may by to big for it to cope with. Can annyone direct my to a solution to this please. BTW i'm just loving AU_Green. Cheers Buggerup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Hi buggerup, Sorry to hear of your woes there, alltough not the most elegant solution I'd say get writ of it and get NOD32, as that is one of the less intrusive AV proggies around and no BS incorporated in it either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Eccleston Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 You can change when and if McAfee does a scheduled scan of your computer. Open the McAfee Security Center Basic Menu Under Common Tasks, click Home. On the Home pane, click Computer & Files. In the Computer & Files information area, click Configure. On the Computer & Files Configuration pane, ensure that virus protection is enabled, and click Advanced. Click Scheduled Scan in the Virus Protection pane. You can then change a scheduled scan as appropriate or you can disable a scheduled scan by unticking Enable scheduled scanning. Click OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurdy Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 I have to agree with Wolter, I also use NOD32, and you can tell it to exclude your FSX directory if you want. That way you can do a manual scan on that directory when required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had some attack on the computer, ran Mcaphee which gave us the all clear then ran spybot which did the job. spybot is freeware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penzoil3 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 If you use the advanced view, you can tell McAfee not to scan zip files. I had the same problem with it hanging on the AU Gold zipfile. I disable the scheduler, and just run it myself once a week. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
