    Default Please make the 'Cancel' button work for updates

    When the selected download server is providing the data at a very slow rate, it's impossible to use 'cancel' to get rid of the download window to try another server. I discovered just now that it's actually possible to click 'Download Updates' again to do that, but that's not intuitive at all.

    It'd be nice if 'cancel' did what's expected of it.

    Hello,

    This is a bug in our software. The "Cancel" button fails if there are no responses from the server. An improvement will be available in the next upgrade of Spybot-S&D.

    As a workaround, please test the download server in order to find out which is the best for you. E.g. the Safer Networking mirrors have good results.

    Here is an instruction, how to select another mirror:
