    Spybot, send to problem?
    Spybot - Search and Destroy has added a "Send To" to the left
    (and right) click of certain file types (XLS for one).
    Instead of opening the file when i left-click, spybot opens does a
    quick scan and lets me close the (spybot) screen (the program
    for the file does not open (Open Office) as it should.

    A right-click will open the sub-menu as normal, showing the
    "Scan using Spybot-Search and Destroy.

    I've looked at the Send To folders of all users but dont see any
    reference to Spybot.

    Question: How do i get rid of the Spybot scan for a mouse
    left-click and Right-click????

    I've checked the spybot help and config settings but didn't see
    anything.

    thanks for the help,
    savagcl

    What happens when you Double click one of the files or Right Click and select Open?
