How often do you run a spam/virus scan?

I defragment and do a Anti-Virus scan every saturday and do a spyware scan every other day or so :)
 
Jeeze...

Backups should be done once a week but virus scans and other maintinance programs should be run every day. I do mine right after I log off since I'm on for long periods. Doesn't take that long. I play solitaire on the P3 while working on the P4.
 
I back up all my important school work etc into a 512mb SanDisk USB Flashdrive.
 
I have Counterspy and it has active monitor as long as the PC is on, like a firewall. It runs scans once a day in the evening. I love that software and highly recommended.

As far as virus scans, Norton does it once a week on Friday's. It's overkill when it does that and takes soooooooo long.
