To schedule the AVG scanner to your liking, open a command line window, navigate to the AVG directory and run "avgscan /?". You can set up a scan exactly how you want it, test it from the command line, then schedule it with the Windows scheduler. I have the AVG built-in scheduler disabled. If you also want to schedule the update, try "avginet". You can write a batch file that first calls avginet and then avgscan with the desired options. Then schedule that file to run whenever you want. Don't forget to insert a long enough wait between the two commands, though, as avginet returns immediately to the command line, even though the update is not complete yet.
