Is it possible to just scan my usb thumb drive? If so, how long would it take roughly to scan a 12 GB thumb drive?

Thanks,
Grace

Hello GraceM and welcome to the forums.
Re: How long to scan your thumbdrive (12GB), I would say around some couple of hours, if not days. :laugh: Why?
Well, basically Spybot's right-click scanning feature was meant to scan single files only, not acting like a anti-virus scanner, scanning whole drives at a time : ).

I hope this explanation cleared your doubts.
