[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1861899, member: 190607"] If you have VB set to scan your entire hard drive, then something interrupted it's scan. You can try again, or you can set VB to only look in certain high risk places for a less thorough, but faster scan. DetectX is just like MalwareBytes in that it only ever does a scan that takes less than a minute. And, yes, when you launch the app it starts scanning immediately. DetectX is a great app for getting rid of adware, and it can also handle a few odd examples of malware. It's free, it is very much worth having and using, it does a supreme job with adware, but it isn't a comprehensive solution for dealing with any and all malware. [/QUOTE]
