Slow and not working

[Stargazer08]

I just installed the new version and ran it. Now I cannot open Excel documents by double clicking I have to search for them. Even then they take forever to open. Also, Internet Explorer is taking forever to open. I think it may be something I did when setting it up but I don't know how to undo it.

If you turn off the Live Protection you'll probably see a big improvement. See here for details: http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=64325&p=415641
