Hangs at checking autorun locations

The program always hangs when "checking autorun locations"
and I have to end the task.

Any ideas?

TIA

Try running it using a deep scan in Safe mode and see if it still hangs.
On the Scan Page choose Scan Options > Full System Scan. Do this at
least two times until detects something. Also, before you restart in safe
mode, disable System Restore, some trojans and spyware programs are likely
to restore themselves with system snap shots:

Right click My Computer > Properties > System Restore, check the "Disable
System Restore" check box and restart in safe mode.

Restart in safe mode instructions:

Remember, this is still beta and cannot be judged as a finished shipping
product.

Still hangs in Safe Mode.
BTW, I am not judging this as a finished product.
Actually, I was impressed that my post was answered so
quickly!

Isn't anyone else getting hangs at "checking autorun
locations"? It's happening on all my PCs.
