Hi...Let me try to explain the problem. I've been using Spybot for a number of years w/o any problems; works fairly silently and unobtrusively. I'm on the internet about an hour per day, sometimes a bit more. When I log on to my FireFox the Spybot kicks in and after a few minutes and usually reports "congratulations etc. etc." At least that's the way it was working until a couple of weeks ago. There were problems which I couldn't figure out so I deleted the program and then re-loaded it. Spybot then examined my disc minutely taking over an hour and finding a couple of minor problems which I deleted. I then expected Spybot to build on the initial screening and once again do the few minutes of examination and then a report; but noooooooooooo(as the kids say!) every time I log on to the internet I get that minute exam which takes over an hour. My question: how do I get back to where it was before, a quick exam and a quick response?
