First, I saw a very long thread about this problem, where no one seemed to be able to grasp what the problem was, and therefore, no solution was posted.

Since I am now having the same problem, I'll try again.

When I double click some files, MPEG, AVI, FLV, for example, the program associated with the files dosen't launch. File associations are correct.

Instead, spybot launches, painfully slowly, and scans the files. 5- 6 minutes worth of scan for a small MPEG. I want spybot to stop this nonsense, and be able to launch programs without the scan.

I can right click and Open With to work around this, but something is clearly wrong with Spybot since I peformed the last upgrade to 1.6.2.46 last updated 8/26/09

I do not wish to disable right click on demand scan. I have no problems in the context menu.

Any help appreciated...
