[QUOTE="roger_m, post: 954896, member: 31436"] The only time I ever run a full scan if an antivirus prompts me to run one. If I'm not prompted to run a full scan, I'll run a quick one. From then on, I'll usually never run either, and just depend on the real-time protection to detect threats. Real-time protection should be enough to detect any active threats. [/QUOTE]
