    fortytipper:

    I'm curious. Before resorting to running Spybot in Safe Mode, did you try the spybotsandra's suggestion?

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    G'day from SA!

    I had this happen to me for the first time today. I had just updated the definitions and, about a minute into the scan, I got the same message.

    All I did was to remove & reset the Immunisation, and it all worked fine from there!

    I hope this may help find a final solution to the problem.

    Default same problem, evntually worked out...

    I had the same problem. I reran the 'check for problems' a couple of times, closed the program & re-opened, rebooted the computer, re-immunized, explored the other suggestions folks made, tried repeatedly for a few days, and one day finally it started working again, no problem. Perhaps sometimes a glitch occurs with the immunization download and doesn't let the cycle complete itself and it eventually works itself out? I'm not sure, but if none of the suggestions work (esp rebooting, reimmunizing, and open/close the program), then just give it a couple of days and see if it fixes itself (maybe it resyncs itself after another virus update?). Good luck!
