system scan repeats itself endlessly
Hello,
I have been in roundabout limbo.
I have Home edition of Spybot Search and Destroy on a
WINXP computer (lol, sorta). I use Firefox browser.
I ran system scan on C drive. Scan completes to 100%,
then it restarts itself, stopping at 4.7% with 1213 minutes remaining.
I ran System Restore three times. No luck.
I recently installed a 2009 HP 4200 Officejetallinone (I know, luddite!).
But I followed the HP website on driver updates, installations.
Please advise. Thank you.

Lykele had something similar happen,and let the scan run through,and the time remaining was a bit of a miscalculation and completed within twenty minutes.This is their post here:

You might like to let it go and see if that happens in your case,also.

still happens!
Hi!
I followed the link you pasted re Lykele's problem; sorry it didn't work.
I have since taken several actions:
I found a folder named AtuZi in my program files. (I found out it was a virus!) I deleted the folder; (I didn't find it in Add/Remove programs). I also deleted its' keys in my registry folder. Then I rebooted and did another C/ scan. Same result. Spybot started the endless loop after 100%.
I wonder why Spybot didn't pick this up, but what do I do now? Oh boy....
Thank you for your attention.
Katy
