So I installed S&D several months ago. I was quite pleased with it for quite a bit, lately since I have been gaming on my laptop again I try to run it with no memory hogs. Scanner Service is a huge hog and is constantly running in the background. Now of course my first thought is to just disable it for when I play games. Well it seemed to disagree with me. If i disable the service it makes my computer unable to visit any website and I cannot log into my MMO. There seems to be a proxy setting for localhost to port 21320, and for some odd reason no matter where how I try and disable it, it ALWAYS reapplies itself. I have tried just in internet options, registry edit. It is so frustrating because now I cannot use the internet on my laptop unless I am running scanner service. Even if I have completely uninstalled Spybot S&D. I have googled to the wall trying to find a solution and I can not find anything on the subject. Any help at all would be great, before I do a system wipe.
