Slow Virus Scan After Update

[Marcos 5,070]

A full WMI & reg. scan may take 10-20 minutes, hence it's important to not select them as targets if you want to run a quick scan only. Quick and in-depth scans are subject to further internal discussions and I see there room for improvements.

Same thing here.  Since updating to the current version scans have been taking a ludicrous amount of time.  Currently sitting through one that's at 40 minutes so far.

Select Advanced scans -> Custom scan. Unselect "Registry" and select the drive or path to scan; the scan will be as fast as before.
