Forever scanning "atbroker.exe"...

[Diffie]

Hello,

I hope that I am posting in the correct part of the forums. If not, please let me know or move this to the proper section. I am encountering a problem with Spybot S&D+AV that began recently where it is constantly scanning the file, atbroker.exe. The scan is causing my computer to hang, and the file, which is part of Windows, is necessary to run assistive programs that I use. Please advise me on how I can stop this scan from taking place.

Thank you,
Diffie

Hi, Diffie. I suggest contacting Team Spybot and asking them about this. The contact page is here:
