    not heard of it.

    try removing spybot and reinstalling.
  • Stop the scan, download the latest updates and try again.

    I read something about a particular .dll file causing problems for certain users. It was mentioned on this forum a few days ago and the post referred to the Spybot forum for more info. Spybot ran with no problems on my system but it obviously affects some users.
    :doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:
