Hi
I'm Getting Really Fed Up With - Idle Time
Why?
Coz... It's Not True Idle Time
It's as though it has a secret schedule
If when my laptop was left Idle... NIS 09 - Would just get on with it ... I Wouldn't Mind!
Example!
All idle jobs done straight away ... All In One Go ... As soon as the laptop is idle.
However!
That is not how it works
Just because I leave my Laptop idle ... That doesn't mean NIS 09 will get on with a job
I can eat my dinner... NIS 09 ... Does Nothing!
I can eat my Tea... NIS 09 Does Nothing!
So I leave my laptop Idle again... Still NIS 09 Does Nothing!
It seams NIS 09 only does an Idle Time Job... When It's Ready!
So if you want NIS 09 to complete all - Idle Time Jobs...
Just turn on your computer... Then Go Out For The Entire Day
I Find..
Norton Insight Submission
Norton Insight Scan
Full Scan
The Biggest Nightmares
Well I'm sick and tired of sitting watching my laptop sit idle... Waiting for NIS 09 to work
I may as well not have this laptop.
All I do is sit and wait for - Norton
2 days ago...
I Set Idle Time To - 5 minutes
Still Just as Bad!
In - Total
My laptop must have been left Idle for at least 2 hours today.
However!
NIS 09 ... Still hasn't managed to run...
Norton Insight Submission
Norton Insight Scan
It's the same every day
It will be approx 9:30 pm ... Before these jobs will run while NIS 09 is left idle.
To Make Matters Worse
If someone in our house ..
Happens to change channel on the TV ( TV Remote ) .. While NIS 09 is Background Scanning...
The Scan Stops
This means a Full Scan can take an entire day
Can Someone Help Me With A Couple Of Questions Please?
1/ Will Turning Idle Time - OFF ... Reduce My Security ( Make My Laptop Un-Safe )
2/ I Believe.. NIS 09 will still run some Idle jobs... What are these jobs?
3/ I will need to schedule a Full Weekly Scan.. Wont I?
4/ Is there anything important I should know?
Thanks In Advance!
