    This program is constantly accessing my floppy drive. About every 5 seconds.

    "Constantly", or only while the console shows you it is scanning (every 5 seconds = for each file it tests)? That's probably the same "floppy access" thing also found in 1.5.1.15, see bugtracker

    There is actually no problem with running this AND folding at home, or other distro project at the same time. When Spybot Distro actually gets work, it takes no time at all for it to run its checks. So you can leave them both running same time. Works good and I can see how this will actually help you out alot.

    How many rigs are there running your distro at this time? Is it enough to make a differance
    ?

    Todays test sets may have showed a possible problem: we did add a standard service to test services detection through SDDT, and found that it might hang the testing system.

    Therefore, the link in the first post has been updated to link to version 1.0.2, which does not hang there, and has the additional advantage of offering a button to look for an updated version from within the software, and more important storing the duration of a scan inside the log, so that we can do speed tests as well.

    Links to changes in project tracker:

    Talking excellent!

    1.0.2.0 seems to be running quite smoothly now. Before i had to open the stand-alone client for the darn thing even to start and it still hung, but now that bug is gone! I really appreciate the time that you guys put into spybot and all the other little tools that you make. I'm just glad i can help you guys out in some way in your fight against malware!!!!
