I'm just curious to know why the floppy drive, at least on my system (Vista Ultimate 32-bit), is checked every time I start Spybot S&D 1.5.1.13. Perhaps this is not typical and there is a problem?

See this topic (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?p=107103). For the main app, it's normal, for the updater, we'll try to locate the reason.

in other words, it's "by design" for spybot 1.5 app to check floppy drives whether they have floppy disks inserted or not, regardless of what version of windows installed

not a huge problem on my machines
