    There were many reports of Spybot 1.5.1.15 starting slowly. The problem has been found and fixed. See the following tracking task (which includes a link for a fix to the problem):

    In addition there is another beta version of Spybot 1.5 that solves the slow start as well as other known problems that have been encountered since the original release of Spybot 1.5:

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.

    Hello.
    Just found this post in Forum and happy to say that I to had the dreaded "Slow Start Syndrome" with 1.5.15 but having downloaded the 'Beta' version and installed things have gone from Steam Driven to Hyperspace!

    nearly forgot!
    One question still however nags me?

    I see the icon in the 'TeaTimer' for "Resident IE".
    Could somebody please confirm that this also works with Mozilla Firefox please as I don't use IE as I am not impressed with it and its security aspects even in V7.
    Thanks.
