    I am running EZ Antivirus version 7, and I just did a scan of my system. It only scanned drive C: and not any other drives. I cannot find any place to set it to scan all hard drives, even though it says in the help files it is supposed to do that. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

    Open EZ Antivirus click on Selective Scan. That is where you can configure it.

    I see where I can choose to scan an individual hard drive, but what I want is for it to automatically scan all drives whenever I run a scan of my system via the button that says "scan my computer" on the virus scanning tab. Am I not understanding what you are telling me?

    Mine is the standalone version, also 7.0.5.3, engine 11.9.1, and I upgraded to this newest version when my subscription was ready for renewal on my previous version. I don't remember how I had it set up, but I have always had two internal hard drives. I downloaded this same version yesterday on my husband's computer, and it scanned both of his drives, c and d. There was no setup when we installed it. I can't understand what would be different between the two machines, except that his is Win 98SE and mine is Win XP SP2.

    OK, I just downloaded the newest version (7.0.7.7) and ran another scan, and it did scan both hard drives, but only drive c: shows up in the log. I guess that's it.

    OK!! Maybe they think info on the other drives aren't important. I just delete the logs rarely read them.

    Maggie - I went back and looked more closely to the log file, and only the files that "failed" were listed in the log. So, I guess nothing on drive d: failed so they weren't listed. It was confusing to me to scan down the file and see only drive c: files referenced. Live and learn!
