Different Scan Results

[SUPERAntiSpy]

Hi Nick,

No problem, just an observation.

I'm running Vista Prem. SAS v4 and have noticed that scans in Admin. and Standard accounts are different in both speed and files scanned.

............................Admin Results.............Standard Results

..............Time:........16.17mins....................40.53mins

....Mem. Items:.............737.............................696

.....Reg. Items:............6534............................6541

.......File Items:...........20117..........................36845

As I said, no problems, just thought you might want to know.

Thanks.

We'll check it out here, is this 4.0.1154? It could be that DDA is not accessible on the standard account for some reason.

Thanks for your reply,

Yes, it is version 4.0.1154. I'll try a scan later on the standard account by right clicking and running as administrator to see if there is any difference. I will post back the results.

Thanks.

May I have a developer contact you?

Yes, of course.

Just to follow up, I ran another scan, right clicked and ran as Administrator on a standard account.

Results:

Time: 16.47 mins

Mem. Items: 699

Reg. Items: 6573

File Items: 20087

Thanks.

Can you turn DDA off and do the scan under Admin?

Nick,

Done a complete scan on Admin. acc. with DDA disabled.

Results:

Time: 39.47 mins

Mem. Items: 697

Reg. Items: 6542

File Items: 36834

Hope it helps.

Would you try a special build to see if it resolves the problem?

Hi Nick,

Just checking back to see if there's any update.

Something else I discovered last night, maybe your aware of already, when updating the free edition, I have to update separately for each account, admin and standard.

Yes, you currently have to do definitions updates for each account, that will be changed in a future version.

Does it mean, that with DDA it scans less files,

or without DDA scans some more times ? Or just count more times ?

It's likely an admin vs standard user issue - try 4.1 and see if the results are the same.

I will try, anyway, the original poster noticed the difference

within admin account , having DDA ON/OFF, thats why have asked.
