I have scanned my pc several times with Spybot and when it gets thru scanning I click the Fix button. The hour glass shows up but it doesn't appear to do anything. I have left it there for quite a few minutes. If I click it again - I get a (not responding) error. Not sure what's up with that. Appreciate any help or suggestions.
Problem after Scanning

Couple of questions....
1.) Do you have the latest version of spybot? What version do you have?
2.) What operating system are you running?
3.) Have you tried selecting 1 items at a time and just fixing them one by one?
4.) How many items were detected? (right click the white area in the scan window and choose copy contents to clipboard and post them here.)
Also, Have you tried a scan in safe mode to remove those items?
Please let us know if you need more information or more assistance.

Hello,
Please disable all other security programs that you run and close all other programs during the work with Spybot - Search & Destroy.
Also run a scan in safe mode:
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/chsafe.htm
That should fix it.
It should also help to deactivate the scanning for usage tracks and Cookies.
Please run Spybot-S&D and switch to "Advanced mode" via the menu bar item "Mode". Now select "Settings" --> "File Sets" in the navigation bar on the left. The checkboxes in front of "Usage tracking, Beta.uti, NewTracks.uti and Tracks.uti" have to be unticked if you do not want to find usage tracks anymore. For excluding Cookies from the search deactivate the checkbox in front of Cookies.sbi.
Best regards
