Default Beta 1 serious memory leak


Beta 1 appears to have a huge memory leak when scanning
my system. It comes to the registry key
HKCU\software\cydoor services and then starts using 100%
of the CPU time, and if I let it run long enough (4-6
hours) it uses over 2GB of virtual memory and never gets
done.

I tried the scan in regular and safe modes, and the same
thing happens. The only solution was to change the
permissions on the two cydoor registry keys and then
manually delete them. After that, the scans complete.
