Local scan wont complete

supotuco

On my iMac after I upgraded to version 8.x I have been unable to complete a scan.  I have around 4.3 million items.  What happens is the scan quits in the middle of a scan.

    I tried to do a custom scan of just my Machintosh HD.  It seemed to be working fine, but ended up quiting before it finished and it still says "this scan has never been completed".  I do think it stops scanning when the computer sleeps, but in this case I continued to work on the computer so it would not sleep.  It was running in the background, but just now when I checked on it again, the program had quit again without finishing.  I'm very discouraged about this.  With the last virus protection program that I owned I had it set up to scan the whole drive every night in the middle of the night.  It worked every time and it didn't matter that the computer was sleeping.
