    Hello arenas,

    Which version of Spybot do you have please: https://www.safer-networking.org/private/

    Does Spybot freeze on a particular item it is scanning?

    For instance:
    https://www.safer-networking.org/faq...zlob-zipcodec/

    https://www.safer-networking.org/faq...ring-the-scan/

    Best regards.

    Hello arenas,

    If the download is not successful you can manually download the updates on this page: https://www.safer-networking.org/dl/

    Manual detection updates

    Hope that helps.

    Default SpyBot Doesn't Stop Once Scan Is Over

    I have the most current version with automatic updates on a Pro account. Version: 2.5.24.0 Update: 2.5.42.94 When I run a full scan the scan doesn't stop once the scan has finished. It starts to run the scan again. If I don't stop it it will run forever. Once the initial scan is finished I can stop it and it will ask me if I want to fix the errors. Other than that everything else works. This is a recent problem, I assumed it started after a recent update.

    Default Best of luck, Mike

    I had this problem and posted the following on a previous thread. Then they closed the thread without responding. Apparently they don't respond well to criticism.

    I purchased spybot yesterday, July 15, 2017. Spent 14 hours whitelisting (would have been nice to know I wouldn't be able to use the computer for 14 hours) and today I updated, brought immunizations up to date and started a full scan.

    Yes, it did a scan, started another scan and is stuck at 4.9%. I see the information above that there is a fix. Apparently it has been necessary to apply a fix for a considerable amount of time. Why should I apply a fix? Why haven't you fixed it?

    So is it a fact that you haven't so I will have to apply the fix? Lovely. Thanks, sort of. I remember when spybot actually ran all those years ago and for free (and I did donate).
