Windows prompt for disk during Spybot scan

[whatisit]

I am running a desktop with Windows XP Pro (SP2), IE7, Spybot 1.4 and
Sophos anti-virus. I have been using Spybot on this computer for about a
year with no problems. Yesterday I installed the 2006-11-17 Spybot 1.4
Updates, restarted the computer and then ran a Spybot scan. During the scan, at the point when Spybot was scanning for Win32.Lager.aq, the following Windows prompt appeared:

"There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive"

As this prompt appeared the scan stopped running. I chose "cancel" on the
prompt and the scan then resumed. At the completion of the scan, Spybot
indicated that no spyware was found. Next, I ran a complete system scan
for viruses, using Sophos. No viruses were found. I then repeated the
Sophos scan several times, each time with the same result: a Windows prompt for a disk appearing when Sophos was scanning for Win32.Lager.aq. I then proceeded to uninstall and reinstall Spybot 1.4 (along with the Updates).
Next, I ran a Spybot scan several times. The same prompt for a disk appeared each time I ran the Spybot scan.

Does anyone have any ideas about what is going on here and what I can do
about it? Thanks for whatever suggestions you might have.

I have exactly the same problem as " whatisit "; mine started about 3 days ago , hit any button except retry , and scan continues with same results as stated in the other post here .

Have also looked for this Win32.Lager.aq. and found nothing but confusion .


Last problem I ever had with this program was due to corrupted memory , and that has long been fixed , so it can't be due to that .

So what happened now ??

Hi,

On 43632/53119 (WIN 32 Lager.aq) Spybot stops and prompts to insert
a disc. This happens since the last update about 3 days ago.

Many thanks for clarification,

Regards, ossip

All well and good , but the only drive that is labeled as "C" is the hard drive ; and it is not a removable drive .
So this appears not to apply in my case .
So now what ?

Should also add that all was well before this last update .

But anyway, is there a removable disk? Perhaps labeled as "D" or "E" ?

Ya, I have the exact same problem too!
I would also agree all was well before last update!

Any Suggestions?

maybe a re-install of spybot?

In my particular case, I'm having this same problem.. This problem has ONLY manifested recently, since I last updated the Spybot less than a week ago from within the program. The error message pops up when the scan is about 5/6th the way through the whole scan, while Running bot-check (43631/50520): win32.Lager.aq

The error box has a title of :
SpybotSD.exe - No disk

The error states:
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk0\DR0

[Cancel] [Try Again] [Continue]


This error does not seem to crop up when the known Windows error mentioned in a suggested posting above seems to indicate, but instead manifests each time,..in a repeatable fashion, and the same point during the scan, as if the Spybot program itself is prompting some sort of search for something it thinks is on a disk somewhere that it needs to additionally access, and is not finding it. Like I mentioned above, this error only began to manifest just recently, after I got an update for the SpybotS&D. Prior to that,..it seemed to be having no problems whatsoever. The product has,..in fact, been running wonderfully up til now...
