Scheduled Tasks Cannot Run with a Blank Password

[Jon.P]

com'on Microsoft...fix this!

My schedeuled tasks don't run because I do not want a
login password. It does not really provide security and I
have an encrypted hard drive that requires a password to
even boot my laptop. Do not want to have type in another
password to load XP. So I cannot run scheduled tasks like
NAV LiveUpdate.
How about letting me choose if I want a profile password
or not, MS?

As I don't want more spam the email above is phoney, so I
will check back here to see if MS even cares!

Don't think it is a MS problem but more of a Symantec problem. I was having
the same problem running NSW2002. NAV would not autoscan.Symantec said to
create a password in admin account. Scan would run. Uninstalled 2002 ver and
installed NSW2003.Now, all scans run without having to create a password.
