    I use Safernetworking 1 to download my Spybot updates.

    In Seamonkey my download directory is C:\Utilities. In IE, which I don't use much, I browse to C:\Utilities or desktop.

    IE is set to delete Temporary Internet Files upon closing and I delete the cache pretty frequently in Seamonkey (which is set to 25MB).

    It seems Spybot scans the bookmarks from both browsers many times. It used to just scan each one once.

    Sincerely, Libra

    Libra:

    What version of Spybot are you running (Spybot > Help > About)?

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.

    Hi md usa spybot fan,
    I am still using version 1.4. I'm reluctant to install 1.5 at this time. This problem started a few months ago.
    Thank you.
    Sincerely, Libra

    Libra:

    I don't know of anyway to bypass the bookmark scan. However, I think that if you were to try Spybot 1.5 you would see a marked improvement in the bookmark scan over Spybot 1.4.
