Same Problem with zlob.zipcodec
Progress bar nearly 100%
Won't proceed any further - have waited as long as 48 hours.
Also unable to open Settings.
Uninstalled and re-installed Spybot - same problem.
Win 10 x64
Problem started a couple weeks ago.
"Stop scan" is recognized (button grays out) but scan never stops - have to kill Spybot in task manager.
I'm nore sure we are infected with zipcodec.. just hangs when running SB
[QUOTE=shellyjmcd;468802]So bottom line on the Trojan is that it too got past Spybot and we are experiencing the same behavior as described by the others here. This particular system is a brand new Lenovo running Win10 and the very first thing I did was move her Spybot license to the new machine, created a white list and installed Office and QuickBooks. She does surf the net a bit so once I either get a solution through my trouble ticket or reinstall her OS to wipe it clean, I am going to set up her old system to surf on, it's just not safe out there even with Spybot working hard to try and protect us.
Its unclear to me if my machine is infected with Zipcodec - whatever that is. I don't think so as there are no issues I can see - other than Spybot does not finish the scan - ever. (as many have reported). Is there some way to tell if I have Zipcodec on my computer? I have looked and searched the suggested files, but nothing on my computer seems to show Zipcodec. I would imagine all others are in the same boat - nothing showing Zipcodec on their systems either.
Yes, no info from SB is very concerning - can't imagine why there is NO response. Perhaps they are all on vacation? (for the next months)

same issue spybot 2.5 gets to 100% and sits
i am also running an upgraded windows 10 64bit. windows defender runs a clean scan but i have had viruses and malware before that were not caught by defender so i researched spybot and downloaded it. it has fully updated and i have run it with no results, my first scan ran to 98% after 4 hours of waiting with no other progress i closed it and reran the scan and left it for the night, at 5 am it said 100% but nothing else. closed rebooted the system and tried again and left for a few hours with it running, when i returned again it sat at 100% but never told me anything more just sat. i then looked up the issue and did some of the suggested things like disabling cookies and turning off my defender and shutting down all my windows and running processes and tried to run another scan, again i have made it to 100% but have been sitting at 100% for over an hour. other than finding another malware program that will complete the scan im at a loss and as i have read this seems to be an issue for a lot of people and no one seems to be answering how to fix the issue. any suggestions to getting the program to complete the process would be appreciated
