Avoiding removing passwords with Spybot.
I may have just sent this email below but not sure if it got through. Apologies if it is a repeat.
Dear Zenobia, (or other helper)
Some 16 months back you advised me how to set 2.3 so I don't lose my passworsd whe I scan. I am now anxious to download the latest version 2.4. Are the same instructions still valid for 2.4 so I don't lose passwords. Your help would be so appreciated. Thank you, Anthony
Previous instruction:
Spybot scans for usage tracks:

This includes scanning for cookies.When you press Fix Selected and the cookies are removed,this may account for the passwords you use on various websites being removed,and you having to sign in again.
You could either stop scanning for usage tracks altogether:
Open Spybot Start Center,place a checkmark in Advanced User Mode,click Settings(if you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7,say yes to the prompt from User Account Control.),go to the categories tab,somewhere in the window rightclick and select Spyware scan only.
