my ad aware se, keep freeze, 18 objets was recognized, objets scanned are 72821, and in this point, the sistem keep freeze, what i can do?

carroman10,
I recommend that you do a thorough Disk Defragmentation,
followed with Check or Scan Disk depending upon your version of Windows then
Please can you make sure that you have Ad-aware SE Build 106 and have used the WebUpDate feature to get the latest Definition file
The appearance of hanging usually occurs when 'Scan archives' is selected. Its not actually stopped scanning however. What's happening is Ad-aware is de-compressing/ unzipping files to check the contents for suspicious files, the Ad-aware re-compresses the files. This can take some time.
If this is the setting that's effecting your scans,
Try this
Open your Ad-aware,
Click the "Settings" (The Gear) button at the top right to display the "Settings" main menu.
Click "Scanning".
Un-Tick 'Scan within archives' and
then Click on "Scanning Engine"
then un-Tick (un-check) "Unload recognised modules during scan"
then Click on the Proceed button.
Also try shutting as many programs/process as possible. (I.E firewall Anti-Virus etc.) Please make sure that you
Unplug/disconnect your Modem before disabling your Anti-Virus/Firewall
Just remember to turn them back on
Then scan with Ad-ware by doing a "Full Scan" and post your logfile here by using the "reply" feature,

but if you find that your scan still hangs then I recommend that you "Full Scan" and when it stop (Freeze) then mark and remove any items found then
Reboot (ie: Re-start your PC)
then rescan again doing a full scan this scan should make it further than the other do the same again remembering to Reboot (ie: Re-start your PC) after you remove any thing
and you should be able to get a full scan finished but it may just take time and a few full scans but once it scans a complete full scan it will continue to do so.
