Ad-Aware scans all the way until it comes to C:\Windows\System32\ShellExt where it gets stuck. This problem has only started after upgrading to 1.06. Happens even on fresh install of ad-aware.
Does anyone know how to fix this or do I have to go back to use 1.05?

I haven't experienced the problem, but have you done a full scandisk lately to check for corrupt files? Just taking a stab in the dark here.

Worked again after running skandisk eventhough there was only one corrupted file and it wasn't even in the system32\ShellExt :/
