What use to take 20 -30 minutes in now taking 5, 6 or more hours to complete a Spybot scan on all three of our computers. Your thoughts?

What version of Spybot-Search&Destroy are you running? The current one is 1.6.0.30.

Are there any other programs running during a scan? Have you cleared your cache, cookies, temp. files from your browsers and your system?

Micky, it doesn't have to be malware. Have you tested teh latest beta of Spybot-SD?
