Norton Idle Scans and BOINC/Seti@Home

Is there any way that NIS 2009 can ignore boinc and seti@home process (or consider them idle) so it will perform idle scans?

Yes, Boinc can be manually snoozed from the systray icon, which is what I can do for my laptop.  It's a manual process where I'd prefer an automatic process.  I tested this and it worked.

 

For my desktop, which I leave on overnight a couple times a week, I configured Advanced -> Preferences, processor usage tab to not run for 15 minutes before midnight every night and not run from 23:00-23:59 on Friday and Saturday night.  I expect this will work fine.

 

I was hoping that NIS could be configured to treat this application as idle so it would take priority whenever it wanted/needed.  

 

Not a huge deal . . .

 

Thanks for the advice.
