Thank you.

I do not remember where the link was to disable it, but I am sure you can bypass this.
Right click the Excel file>Open with>Microsoft Excel (or which ever program you use). I suggest you tick "Always use this program for this kind of file.", so it works everytime.

Hello,
To disable the single files scan please open the registry editor by:
(a)
press windowskey + r then enter "regedit" (without quotation marks)
or
(b)
click on "start" , then "run" and enter "regedit" (without quotation marks)
(a+b)
and then browse to the following path.
Please delete the following registry keys:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\sdfiles
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\sdfiles
For more information, please have a look into our forum (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=30678).
