Zlob.ZipCodec

System Scan hang-up on Zlob.ZipCodec

Here too, and only just recently, like in the past day or two, System Scan gets to 100% scanning for Malware, and then unlike past performance, System Scan spends an enormous amount of time on "Zlob.Zcodec downloaded files..." I notice too that, at least in my specific case, while spending this enormous amount of time on this particular "product," that at some point System Scan gets to: C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache\f_00009c, whereupon System Scan seems to loop, or halt, or can't scan the specified file(s), folder, or directory. The green progress bar continues to run endlessly left to right as it normally does, but no progress is made from this point on by System Scan. And because System Scan halts or hangs-up where and how it does, it never does get to perform the Virus Scan that follows the Malware Scan.

This problem is new. I am using and have had Windows 10, 64-bit ever since it was first released and have not had this most recent System Scan problem.
 
Shocking

ONE MONTH on from my post - and longer for others - and not a single post from the developers ??

W_T_F is going on ? - don't they care or don't they read their own forums ?

Whichever one it is, it's pretty bloody disgusting ...
 
I've been having the exact same problem for months - haven't been able to complete a single scan. Do we know if it's a spybot bug, or if it's related to some sort of trojan or malware?
 
@DaveCInOz: developers usually are not here, but our supports might have shown more presence, agreed :)

Were weren't unbusy... I've described here what took place meanwhile. Gathering information via email was simply more effective.

@ntesla: It's IE cache related (which I agree doesn't speak out what exactly corrupted the cache yet), and the linked post includes two things to try out; meanwhile we're preparing a quick workaround tool that I'll add there as well.
 
Scan wont complete

I have the same problem with scan also. It says 100% complete but hung up on zlob.zipcodec. I have windows 10 and 64 bit. I liked using this scan and was going to buy it but now that it does not work, what is the point now. If it cant be fixed, let us know so i can uninstall it. As now it is worthless. I see many people are having the same problem and it has been going on for months. Let the users know something, so they can chose to do what needs to be done.
