G'Day!

Request for Pause-Resume buttons in spybot S&D programme


Could Spybot please consider the early introduction of Pause-Resume buttons in Spybot S&D

Spybot S&D takes a considerable time to complete its scan & I often wish to check something on the Web before the scan is completed

At present, I cannot pause the programme as no such option is offered, & my only possibility is to abort the scan & start again-which wastes time

Other security programs normally do offer this pause-resume feature, which I find extremely useful

I would much appreciate learning from Spybot whether my request will be considered
& whether there is a serious possibility that this feature is likely to be in introduced in the near future.


If affirmative, could I also be advised by what approximate latest date this is likely to happen please


Thank you

A "Pause" button is already available. See post #5 (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?p=230411&highlight=pause#post230411) in this thread:

make sure you have the latest spybot version (1.6), always double check to make sure of that. The scan time in the newest version is not as long as older versions.
