I received a .wmv file and although my anti-virus said it was clean, my hard disk started cranking away and it looked like my computer froze for a few minutes. Then Windows Media Player came up and played the file. I ran SB and it found some general stuff but nothing serious. Still, I know that SB can't detect every spyware out there. Is there a place where I can have this file scanned?

Thx for your help.

You've posted in the wrong place (you should have posted in the main forum HERE (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=4)) and to answer your question upload the file HERE (https://www.virustotal.com/).
