After the last updated that included thousands of new immunizations etc. The secure shredder under tools section fails to work. It says the files have been deleted and shredded, but they are not. I know it was the last update because I took an image of the program directory just made before the problem and replaced the program directory. All Worked well, back to normal. THEN, ran the latestes updates again and things are broke again. Anyone else tried the shredder since the last updates to see if it works ?.

I found that I now have to unselct that tool then reselect it to get it to work. Small annoyance, but can live with it.

I can't get it to work. All files are selected and have a green check mark next to them and when I click on "Chop it away!" the little box pops up and askes if that's what I want to do, I select YES and it does nothing.

What's next?
Thanx

You evidently are using an old version of Spybot. The Secure Shredder was removed from Spybot 1.5, but will probably be put back. See:
whoa!! what happened to the file shredder?!!

The only thing that I can suggest in the mean time is to try to shred less at one time.
