I have and use Ad-Aware SE plus; Spybot; Win Defender; and SpySweeper. with no problems until this week after update.

I just updated to ver 5.0 Spysweeper

Prior to this when I ran AdAware in any scan mode it performed with no problem .

But after update to Spysweeper 5.0 AdAware hangs after about 2200 files scanned.This in any scan mode.

I can exit Spysweeper ( leaving Spybot and Win Defender open and active) and then AdAware completes scan with no problem, its just with SpySweeper.

I have emailed Lavasoft support and SpySweeper re any possible configuration setting I might change to solve the conflict...but no reply to date.

Does anyone have any suggestions which might clear up the conflict with these two programs?

Thanks in advance

I for one have complained to Webroot and they have assigned a 'ticket'. No answer yet.

Problem has been mentioned in various places in this support forum for over a week.

Whoever is in charge should pull all complaints together and/or post a comment on the opening page.

There is a conflict between Ad-Aware and the latest version of Spy Sweeper - look at this post:
