ripken204 Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 its mainly the layout of the program/visual style, it make the program look cheesy but im going to have to give it a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zxian Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hehe... funny you should mention that... I've got my NOD32 configured so that I never need the GUI. It automatically updates, so no need for that. If it finds anything, it's set to try to clean it, and if it can't delete it. That way I never have to deal with anything.

egrath Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hi,just insert the following Registry Key to look what your system is doing while it appears to be doing nothing (wow, what a sentence!):HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\systemadd the DWORD Value "verbosestatus" with Value 1I had a similar problem lately and discovered that my system was trying to reestablish a connection to a not available network drive.Bye, Egon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomizer Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 im now using nod32 after reading alot of posts but i dont rly like it<{POST_SNAPBACK}>if you don't need a resident scanner, try ClamWin and ClamMail (link in my sig.). i absolutely love it. very light weight and it only runs and uses resources when I want it to! from the little reading up i've done on them, they appear to be very good and updates are dished out faster than some major vendors. i believe both are open source as well (so they are entirely free).

ripken204 Posted August 3, 2005 Author Share Posted August 3, 2005 also im going thru the settings on it, for automatic update i have it daily at 7pm, and a cool feature is that if the task wasnt completed(like if the comp was off) then i can have it do the update right when the comp starts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A properly configured computer shouldn't need to shutdown/restart for a good long while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egrath Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Hi,when you have verbosestatus enabled, after you login in there is a window centered on the screen telling you whats going on (ie. Restoring Network connections for example)Or is your System hanging after this screen disappears?Egon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
