Think I'll stick with 1.75 till they figure it out.
I normally login with a Standard/Limited account and haven't seen this issue.
Does anyone have this issue with a Standard/Limited account?
Maybe it's a problem when logged in as an Admin user ?
Ran a Custom scan as I slept (It had the rootkit scan unchecked by default), and it completed. No idea if it froze, but it didn't BSOD. I'll have to try a scan while I'm using the PC to see if it's the same. A Guy
I would be happy if ANY scanner could do a FULL (Custom) scan in less than an hour!
I have several hundred GB of media files and other "large files" online normally ... on a HD spinner
That's where I see the problem with a FULL scan ...
SSD vs HD = big difference
Scanning these "media and large files" is what takes so long for me ...
I added some info to the bottom of this post about mbam scanning these images.
I'll test that a bit later.
Nice find, but different from what these videos show. I was able to do other things during the scan, especially while mbam was hanging up and doing nothing.
I'm testing the trial version as a standard user now. I've already seen some brief hangs like those in the 2nd video. [FYI - Those videos were taken while logged on as admin. The total scan time was more than 4hrs on a VM (SSD) with only a few things installed... but don't put too much stock in that long scan time - because Process Monitor was eating up a lot of resources. I should of setup Process Monitor to be backed by files on a drive not being scanned.]
