Where version 1.4 was slick & fast, this version 1.5.1.15 is slow as a snail, it takes a full damn MINUTE to even start up, it even wants to access my floppy drive ? What for ?

Updating...... slow...slow....slow..... looking for the floppy drive again (huh!? What for !?) ............... etc...etc....

Why did you guys destroy a one nice security tool ? :sad:
 
Hello,

There are different ways to search for spies.
Spybot - Search & Destroy takes the advantage to check for all existing drives. Antivirus solutions do this also by the way.
It is checking inactive installations and storing a list of really available drives to avoid unnecessary lookups at later points. The creating of such an overview is taking place right at the start of Spybot - Search & Destroy. At this moment Spybot makes a quick scan to proove if itself is modified by malware or some kind of baddie. So this can take quite a few seconds. Please be patient.

Best regards
Sandra
