    Angry All scans freeze my computer

    YIKES. Whenever I scan using either spybot or norton, it freezes my computer. I DO NOT GET ANY INFO regarding the scan as my computer freezes in the middle of it.
    I do see REDIRECT-HOSTS as my freezing point on Spybot.
    Even Symantec freezes the computer...how do i get rid of this and it is harming my computer?

    Hello,

    We need some more information.
    Which version of Spybot-S&D are you running?
    Do you have the latest updates installed?
    Are you running any other anti-spyware tools?
    Which operating system (Windows) are you running?
    Do you have other processes running?

    Best regards
    Sandra
