guster4321 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2008 Hi, everybody. First time using the forum - I have never experienced any issues like this before. First, I had to switch to the new free download, as I couldn't update (went to like 25 days w/o an update). Second, I've uninstalled/installed at least 3 times now, and AAW2007 will NOT stop scanning. Same thing everytime: 'file folders' (conditional). It ran for 41 hrs at one point (out of morbid curiosity I let it keep going). I've tried the suggestions in a couple other threads - neither type of scan will result in a full scan and changing the size (?) or whatever doesn't work either. I am unable to stop scanning as well (to add insult to injury). I have to ctrl/alt/del the hell out of it to close it, or just restart my PC. BTW, I have no corrupted files, according to my defragment report. Third, it takes FOREVER for AAW2007 to pop-up/open-up and close. It says "Done" for about 5 minutes before the menu-type screen finally comes up. Lastly, I really can't run any other programs while AAW is up. It takes waaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy too long. I keep a pretty clean PC (minimal programs, barely any saved content - no mp3 files, no video - just some pics). Not sure what's up (other than a whole ######-load of files that I need AAW for). What gives? I'm very dissappointed to say the least, and my pc is running horribly right now. I'm tempted to dump AAW all together, given the repetive/ineffective solutions or lack of responses I've peaked at on other threads. The last version ran great and didn't seem to interfere with my other programs - not sure why it was abandoned. PS - why all the extra buttons, when they're for the other versions anyway?

English Teacher 0 Report post Posted February 12, 2008 Hi, I had the same problem. You need to check under the settings "skip files larger than " and enter 30,000 kb Follow my thread here http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/index.php?showtopic=15884 Regards English Teacher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
guster4321 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2008 Nope. Same thing. And why would I want to skip a file? That defeats the purpose doesn't it? I guess this isn't going to get fixed judging by the responses... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hopcon2 0 Report post Posted February 14, 2008 I have the same problem. I liked earlier version better. 2007 Pro never finishes the scan, seems to stick on "recently used". It also doesn't seem to tell me what it's doing, as when it is updating definitions or deleting infections. There seems to be no way to enlarge the various dialog boxes to eliminate the scroll bars, such as on Process Watch. I'm tempted to go back to the old version.
