Avast! Anti-Virus is a robust program that offers a boot-time scan. This is a scan that runs prior to the Operating System fully loading drivers, startup programs, or other places where viruses or trojans can hide from scanners.
I searched the Avast site and could not find a simple link demonstrating how to enable the boot-time scan, so I did a few screen captures and put together this FAQ.
After starting Avast! anti-virus from the Start Menu
1) Click the arrow shown
2) Select Schedule Boot-Time Scan
Click the Schedule button
Select Yes
