This might not work,but you could try running a scan in safe mode,and see if Spybot's any faster.
There are instructions for running Spybot in safe mode in the second half of this post,if you need any help:

A ten minute scan time doesn't seem too bad,running a scan in normal mode just now took a little over ten minutes for me.How is it when you run a scan in normal mode,does it take a lot longer than ten minutes?

i stoped it at 45 mins:(

That is quite a long scan time.It's odd that the scan time increased that much after the update.Maybe try temporarily shutting down any non-essential things(if you have any running)when doing a scan with Spybot,and see if that helps the scan time any.Stuff like messenger programs,etc.
