Dang, my old clunker Gateway must be really screaming, LOL.
When I run Malby, I have nothing else running, not even screen saver.
2 1/2 hours is normal for a full scan on C drive 32 Gb.
I don't usually scan the other partitioned drives on the primary drive or the secondary hard drive.
I figure if something is going to get you, it's going to get you on C.
On my wife's Win 7 machine, I scan the whole computer, both the primary SSD and the secondary hard drive because it just flies through it so fast, 45 minutes for everything.
It’s running so slowly, I was able to copy by hand one particular scanned file...

I mean, what is this junk ?
