    It might take a while for Spybot to scan your Download Directory(or directories),depending on the size of your download directory and the number of files contained in your Download Directory.

    Hello,

    There seems to be a problem with your download directory/directories.
    At the end of the Spybot scan download directories are also scanned.
    Please have a look at your download directory/directories and try to disable it/them.

    You can do that this way:
    Please run Spybot - Search & Destroy and switch to the Advanced mode via the menu item Mode.
    Now select 'Settings' - 'Directories' from the navigation bar on the left.
    Then highlight your directory/directories by clicking on it/them.
    Then make a rightclick on it/them and choose 'Remove the selected directory from the list'.
    This should help to get the scan to work.

    Best regards
