Spybot doesn't finish scan, locks up

[techiemon]

For the last month now when I run the bot-check it will stop about 3-5 files before it finishes and it just sits there. Even after an hour it won't finish those last few files to give me the list of problems.

I have updated everything also.

Another strange thing is that for immunizations, I still have 193 files that are not protected, spybot tells me this but won't protect them. I looked and they seem to be opera cookies..

Any suggestions on what to do about these two issues would be much appreciated.

Hello,

1. Please make sure that you are running the latest version of Spybot - Search & Destroy including the latest updates.

To see which version number and/or updates of Spybot - Search & Destroy you are using please run Spybot-S&D and choose "Help" --> "About" in the menu bar.
There you can see which version you have and which updates are installed.
It should be version 1.6 and the updates from the 2008/09/17.

Please run a scan in safe mode:

That should fix it.

2. There seems to be a problem with one of Operas latest updates.

Please have a look at this link in our forum: http://forums.spybot.info/project.php?issueid=279
