Takes forever on virtumonde

[stevecd]

My Spybot spends half the scan time searching for Virtumonde files (.sdn, .dll...).
Is this normal

Hi stevecd,

:welcome: to Safer Networking Forums.

Virtumonde changes every day. As a result, Spybot has thousands of detection rules from Virtumonde in its database and needs some time to search for this trojan. It's normal.
