I would like to know if CCleaner can have some control over antivirus programs. I am very frustrated by the fact that they start automatically and run autonomously on my system. I have tried several brands and always have the same problem. I try removing them from the "run" registry and that keeps the icon from coming up in the tray, but it does nothing to stop the program from running. I know I may be unique in that I don't want my antivirus running all the time, but I'm not very afraid of getting a virus. I just want the ability to scan things from time to time that I know to be high risk items.
Will CCleaner prevent any one of the antivirus titles from starting automatically?
