Boris
Empty your *.tmp folder. Then Run the Scan and while running take a peek into that
tmp folder that you emptied. You will see the tmp files that were created by the
scanner when running. When the scanning finishes open the tmp folder again and you
will see those files are still there. Then after 5,10,15 minutes go and see if they
are still there. You can figure out how long it takes for the scanning engine to
disconnect and you can adjust your repeat scanning accordingly or delete those tmp
files after the original scan finished.
