Hello,

I recently installed Microsoft AntiSpyware, but there appear to be several problems.

I set the automatic scan to run once weekly at 8pm on Wednesdays. It ran today, Monday, at 8pm. I checked the setting on the system summary screen, and it displayed Wednesday 8pm, but when I clicked on "Scan Schedule," the "Schedule Scan" dropdown menu was blank; also, the start time showed "12:00:00am" and "Current scheduled scan runs at: lblScheduleDisplay".

Further, in the System Explorers section, there is nothing listed under "system explorers."

Thanks in advance.

I had already uninstalled and reinstalled the program, and now it expires on 12/31/05, but the same problems remain. I have found several articles that state the problem with the scheduling feature has been reported several times (though they offer no solution), but no mention of the system explorers issue.
