Hi
I'm running my full system Scan for the first time upon first installation on my Win 10 pc. The scan get hung up on Zlob.ZipCode. I let the scan run for one day.
Is there anything I can do to remedy the problem?
Thanks

Hello ashlyw,

This problem was caused by a minor issue in the Spybot program. We are now providing a small installer that will correct this issue on your PC.
Symptoms:

The scan proceeds as normal, but will stop progressing at Zlob.ZipCodec and won’t appear to finish.
The “Settings” button in the Start Center is unresponsive when clicked.

Fix/Solution:

If you are experiencing this issue, simply download and run this small installer (https://www.safer-networking.org/files/spybotsd2-install-iefreezefix.exe). This installer replaces a file that was identified to cause the issue.
