Re: It takes so long to scan a setup program--How can i do

Hi Jume,

The time cost is not like your thought (15-20 sec), usually it will takes
about 2 min or even more.
My CPU is Core E6320 and my av software is KIS 7.
I think that problem should not come from KIS's scanning, because if i use
kis to
do a manually scan for that huge file, kis will tell me it's not infected in
less than 1 sec.
