    Exclamation Spybot File Scanning Shell Extension: bug

    Once again, the (almost) same bug like in a Spybot Christmas Presents, Part 2: Separate File Scanner. It shows some files twice and on those duplicated files, they are stuck forever in "... waiting ...", look in a attachment.

    And one more thing: The progress bar is not working properly. While you are scanning about 200 files, the progress bar isn't showing any progress (0%). When the scan is complete, the progress bar just shows 100% immediately.

    I'm not having the first problem raised by Tom.K (all of the file scans worked correctly) as I hope can be seen from the screen shot. I'm using XP-Home SP3.

    I do see the same in regards to the progress bar - it doesn't move at all until the scan has completed, and then it quickly moves from 0 to 100%.
    But for Tom.k's comment I would not have noticed this - I'm too used to the totally mysterious actions of Acronis True Image's progress indicators.

    I can confirm the two bugs Tom.K said.
    I would like to remind this problem with the single file scanner: http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=33629

    I made myself a note about this. Can't reproduce myself, but have an idea were to start looking.

    Maybe the bug is reproduced only in XP SP2.

    Without guarantees, since I couldn't reproduce the bug today, but wanted to make a few changes: SDFiles.exe.

    PepiMK,

    SDFiles.exe 1.6.1.6 working OK in XP-Home SP3 (however so was 1.6.0.4), with same effect on progress indicator - movement doesn't starts until completion of scan of last file.

    Tried new one, no changes.

    I have reproduced the bug in WinXP Home Edition without service pack.

    PepiMK: Try to reproduce this bug under Windows XP SP2 or older version (Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2K).

    WinXP SP3, Windows Vista and newer versions (Windows 7, still not available) maybe don't have problems with this bug.

    Which changes have been done in 1.6.1.6?
