Need Pause command on manual scan

It would be nice if Microsoft antispyware has a pause
button on the scan progress page.

What sense would that make? Just press abort and start over, trust me, it
makes sense.

I agree, 'til yesterday! I install & run MSAS for a
friend, find over 100,000 registry 'bugs'; while running
overnight, the default 2:00 a.m. scan kicks in, now
there's two running: also, abort won't work (froze?).

re-running scan now (at 133k found), but would
appreciate option to 'abort' and 'process' what's found
so far!

I imagine clean-up will take a week, if scan ever
completes!

Personally, I think its hung, and you need to clean the specific threat that
is causing the hang with some other product.
