New Version of Spybot.

Re: New Version of Spybot.

 

Zee,

I read in the forum that in order to make the immunization 'stick',

you may have to restart after immunizing. Maybe that will be helpful to

you, I hope.

 

Also, for anyone that installed v1.5 OVER v1.4 (like myself), you

will get dual entries in the Add/Remove Programs of Control Panel. I

removed the extraneous entry with jv16 Power Tools. In the Spybot S&D

folder, you will find four *unins* files......<unins000.dat> <unins000.exe>

dated with the install of v1.4 and <unins001.dat> <unins001.exe> dated with

the install of v1.5. The two older files are safe to delete from the

folder........there are no markers pointing to them in the Registry. They

should not create any conflict during uninstall, but, I am deleting them

just to make sure.

Heirloom, old and glad that's out of the way
