I urgently need a good Antivirus which is compatible with Windows XP and is fast in scanning documents. I also need an antivirus which can scan in DOS mode or when the computer is booting.

Paper_Phat asked:


I downloaded avast and everytime a restart or turn on my computer, it starts scanning it. How do you turn this off? I heard that you can turn it off in settings but i can’t find it. I know you can turn it off by clicking run and typing msconfig, but I can’t find it in there either. Can someone tell me the step-by-step instructions on how to do this?

I’ve looked through seemingly all of the options and preferences. It’s very annoying. Every time I boot up my computer, the icon in the system tray animates and it does an on-access scan of every file, which draaags the system down big time. How can I get this to stop? I like to only scan manually. I like the program itself…just don’t like this feature that I haven’t figured out how to turn off.
“Test memory during startup” is actually currently disabled. What this is doing is sitting there scanning each and every program, file, e-mail, web page, etc. that is opened…an actual ‘on-access’ scan-as-you-go approach.

I know of all the great antiviruses out there, but you can’t match active scanning. What is the best free antivirus that achieves this?
