Suggestion for Faster scans.

[techguy911]

How about you take a list of the top X amount of worst offenders in the malware database and just scan for them.

Let me rephrase that.
Create two scanning options.
1. Option one would scan the system for the top 25% worst or most popular infections.
2. Option two would then scan for the remaining 75% of offenders.

Like virus scanners, hard scan for the Elk cloner virus, a spyware scanner should have the option to scan for the most prevalent malware out and then secondarily scan for the other.

I'm really not sure if this feature is implemented into other anti-spyware applications.

However, do you mean more like a "quick" scan and "deep" scan?
