Spybot 1.4 on Windows XP2 Professional. Windows XP is at SP2 with latest updates. Also Norton AntiVirus runs on this PC. Previously Spybot scan would run quickly without pausing. Today (June 30 2007), after downloading latest Spybot 1.4 updates, Spybot scan now stops/starts while it runs with frequent regular pauses of about 1 minute duration each pause. Overall the scan is running much longer. If I run the scan in safe mode it runs without pauses as it used to. Is anyone aware of what would cause this? Has there been a recent change in Spybot updates that would cause this? Is there a tug of war going on with Norton (is that why when I run scan in safe mode without Norton running the scan runs normally) ?? Should Spybot be run in safe mode as normal practice? THANKS !
