  <title>Scheduling a scan or update</title>

<p>You may wish to schedule a scan of your home drive or a signature update.  To do so, click the <gui>Scheduler</gui> button to begin.</p>

<note>
<p>Depending on your network settings, you may need to enter proxy information for updating signatures.</p>
</note>

<p>To schedule a scan of your home directory, set the hour and minute in the top box.  When finished, click the add button.  Conversely, to remove a scheduled scan, click the remove button in the same box.  Your status will be updated at the bottom of the dialog box.</p>

<p>Scheduling antivirus signature updates works the same way.  Set the hour and minute, and click the add button.</p>

<note style="tip">
<p>Note that if you automatically receive updates, you will not be offered the opportunity to schedule an update time for signatures.  Use the antivirus wizard to change these settings.</p>
</note>

<note>
<p>Remember to set the hour using a 24 hour clock.</p>
