Answer #2
Spybot is a well know Spyware removal tool, it is trustworthy. virus scanning often takes a while to scan especially with large files and folders.
Answer #3
as long as you downloaded spybot search and destroy from their web page you are ok. But it will not catch everything you should also run adaware. Also if you are scanning an ISO file depending on how big it is and how many layers it might take a long time some of these can be huge files.
Answer #4
well the isos are the latest games so i guess yeah thats to be expected then…what is adaware? should i remove spybot and get adaware?

Answer #6
Adaware and Spybot are not what they used to be. They are both safe applications but they have problems with detection and removal. Instead I would suggest Malwarebytes’ Antimalware , Super Antispyware and A – Squared Free (two of three would suffice), by the way all of these tools are free.
