Yo peeps
I have just ran adaware and noticed that when it is scanning, the files jump from 5,150 to 22265 with only a brief pause before the leap???? am sure something is wrong? thing is.. what and where and how???? also something called DSO Exploit keeps turning up in spybot???
any help on this would be well appreciated
cheers

Just done a full scan with Adaware6.0 Oz and no problems here. Takes ages though to scan the files (yawn) almost felt asleep trying to see if it jumped.
Hope you get an answer to your problem soon.

Hi Ozzy - don't know about the adaware bit, but on the Spybot and DSO exploit, I found lots.
There is a minor bug in the current version of spybot which is picking up a security hole in internet explorer.
It seems that as long as your windows updates are up-to-date, you don't have a problem - just an annoying bug in spybot (which will be corrected - so update spybot occasionally too).
All best, Gavin
It does the same here, Ozzy.Thought it was the adaware way.Will investigate, can't be too careful.
Cheers Gavin re spybot, it seems that DSO exploit is dealt with by spybot but kinda of tricks spybot into believeing it is still there? confused?.. As to Adaware, I have never seen it jump like that before.. so needs more investigation.. I just noticed that adaware aka lavasoft have their own help forum.. so I will post my query on there and get back to you all...
cheers peeps

Yo Peeps
this is the reply I got from lavasoft peep
Hi Ozzy aka, welcome to the Lavasoft Support Forums.
I once asked the same question, and to quote cannymum...
QUOTE
With regards the "skipping files".......when the scan gets to that part of the registry, it is reading the files so quickly, the counter can't keep up (in real-time). The scan isn't skipping files......the counter just takes a leap to catch up.
Hope this answers the question.
