spybot hangs up

[Compugeek]

Hello,

Although everything else on my computer seems to work, spybot keeps hanging up. First at 499 Baciami, and later on others to the point that it never completes a scan. I have gone through and completed all the steps on the other recent thread under "Spybot Keeps hanging" to no avail. And followed the sticky advice as well. Since I am running firefox I ran Housecall, but never got the option to save a log to show you. I also tried Adaware with the same result. I am running Windows 2000 on an older vaio. I have a hjt file but wasn't sure if I should attach it or wait for some help...Any help would be greatly appreceated.

Hi there.

If you do wish to post a HJT log please follow the instructions in this sticky topic:
"BEFORE you POST" -Preliminary Steps (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288)

Then start your own thread in the malware forum:
Malware Removal Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22)

Curious, which version of Spybot-S&D do you have?

Opening Spybot>Help>About will give you the version and latest detection update.

Tashi,

The version of spybot is 1.4 with the latest detection 2006-10-06. I will post a HJT log on the malware forum as you suggest as I am now getting some interesting re-directs on the web... Never had a problem before, but the computer was used to go to the myspace website...coincidence???

Thanks for the look see

I have myspace blocked, that way no one in the house clicks the wrong click there. ;)
