In what scenarios does people see problem with abort ? What is the behavior, is it just a scanner process that continue running or are we talking about the in-process scanner ? Does the progress bar continue even if you have clicked abort ? I suspect it might take a few seconds for the abort to take effect since there are two processes involved, but if the scanning still continues after 10 seconds it feels like there is a problem somewhere. Maybe it's specific to some configuration so that's why I don't see it in my setup ? -- erland Erland Isaksson ('My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info)) (Developer of 'many plugins/applets' (http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/User:Erland).
