Just downloaded the latest update for Spybot, and it hangs at coolWWWSearch.HomeSearch.
Seems I'm not alone....Spybot forum

Not had a problem so far with latest updates."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

It would seem the problem is with AVG. I turned off the Resident shield in AVG and Spybot scanned fine.i tHink, therEfore I'vE goT a BLOODY heAdAche0

I'm assuming that's just updating, I think the OP meant it hangs while scanning after the latest updates installed. Not had any failed checksums in a while but used to happen all the time with just about every server."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

If you read through the Spybot Forum, it mentions replacing the advcheck.dll file with the newer version (1.2.1.0) that can be downloaded.
This resolved the problem of it hanging on the coolwebsearch issue.
Total scan time on my system was 8 minutes.0 -

That did the trick.

I've certainly noticed that with recent updates it seems to take much longer to perform a full scan. For me up from around 5 mins to about 9 mins.Stompa0
