    Default Spybot 1.5.1.15 ignore cookies very slow

    Has anyone else noticed that the ignore cookies function under settings is extremely slow. It takes some 45 secs on a 2.8ghz XP machine with 1gb memory before the result window populates.

    Before realizing the time required I would click onto the title bar or some other part of the screen only to get the message that the "system was not responding". When all it needed was the long time to finish.

    If anyone else has noticed this is there a patch or resolution to this.

    Thanks

    Frags:

    Mine is lightning quick. However, I am using SpybotSD.exe Version 1.5.1.16 and I have very few cookies.

    If you would like to try it with Version 1.5.1.16, see the following tracking task for the download:

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.

    I also had the start up slowness issue but PepiMk linked me to a zip file with the fix which brought me up to version 1.5.1.16 and corrected the slow start issue.

    Still on my system the ignore cookies function still takes 45+secs and I have very few cookies and sometimes none.

    Any other thoughts.
