    hey all...\
    who can tell me if there is a way to select which drives spybot reads when running or does it go across all physical and logical drives automatically...

    I don't believe there is a setting in Spybot to scan different drives. I don't belive their scanning methods work like that anyway.

    HijackThis is not a scanning tool. It only displays mostly information taken from registry locations and thus does not need to look different disk drives.

    You need to log into the other user accounts to do your cleaning. That applies to all tools. They each have their own registry entries that need to be checked.
