    Default Spybot takes a full minute to load

    Not sure what is happening, installed 1.5. When i click on the desktop icon the HDD makes a couple of quick sounds, kind of clickbzzt. The hourglass cursor turns back to normal about a minute later spybot starts.
    everything else in the system loads fine. I have uninstalled spybit, cleaned the registry and reinstalled and it behaves the same way..i did get an windows error report once that looked like this..
    Error signature:
    szAppName : SpybotSD.exe szAppVer : 1.5.1.15 szModName : hungapp
    szModVer : 0.0.0.0 offset : 00000000

    Details:
    C:\DOCUME~1\MAIN\LOCALS~1\Temp\WEReb12.dir00\SpybotSD.exe.mdmp
    C:\DOCUME~1\MAIN\LOCALS~1\Temp\WEReb12.dir00\appcompat.txt

    any thoughts?

    Hello,

    We already have located the startup problems in Spybot S&D version 1.5 and fixed it.
    Here is the download file for the fix - the new Spybot beta: http://www.spybotupdates.biz/files/b...15he-beta2.exe

    Best regards

    After cleaning the viruses off my computer i decided to update to the beta version of spybot, which supposedly improves the startup time. Spybot is still taking a long time to load (i am running version 1.5.1.18) ...is this normal?
