Reported 3 problems fixed at 19:13:35

So the last scan is 48mins. I noted ZLOB.Downloader.BS slowed as usual but Spybot stepped on to the next process after 20secs, not the 3 or 4min wait first experienced.
However, I rescheduled the times for Spybot to run (3 times) in Task Scheduler, I did not right clik and select Run. Thought it best to have it start some 4 or 5mins after I rescheduled. What came to light as I checked all the Task Scheduler tabs was the Settings tab - Stop the task if it runs for 1 hour 10mins.

This goes back 9 months when I had the max time taken over a week for each task. Added 5mins to each max time before the next task start time.

This explains why Spybot shut down. I suspect ZLOB.Downloader.BS was being being scanned at the Stop task time, which is why it hung for 4 or 5 mins before finishing and shutting down.

I will now reschedule the Spybot scan for 2155hrs and AVG at 2255hrs allowing about 13mins between the two. I shall post that result tomorrow 1000GMT

Thanks

Click to expand...

Looks OK to me, and no doubt you are happy to see it working as it should.
You might want to increase the gap a bit more to play safe (scan could extend with extra temporary files) and review from time to time if the rate of new nasties continues to ramp up like it has recently. Hopefully version 2 will provide some relief.

I think we can mark this one solved.

Fine. I will increase the gap between Spybot and AVG and watch it.

Thanks for your patience and very helpful advice which solved the problem
