Any type of scan Hangs up while doing a Registry Scan. Goes
thru files OK.
The animation continues, but it stalls on a given registry:
HKEY_LOCAL-MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\toolbar.IToolbarScriptClass\Clsid
I can only close it using the StartBar icon which looses
all info obtained. Any remidies??
 
Try running the scan in Safe Mode. Restart your computer and tap the F8 Key
on your keyboard until the prompt appears asking which mode you would like
to start in, select Safe Mode, using either the up or down arrow keys.
 
I have exactly the same problem with different registry
entry. I'll be watching your post. Hopefully, someone has
an answer.
 
Enable show hidden files and folders (Tools > Folder Options). Empty your
temp directory. Disable System Restore (Properties > My Computer > System
Restore (tab). Restart the computer in safe mode again, and run a full
system scan (Scan Options > Full System Scan). Its possible this piece of
spyware is restoring it self with system snapshots.
