    Default spyware removal question

    Guys, I had someone install v 1.4 on my system and decided to try it today for the first time.

    it found 60 threats (red) and I opted to FIX which I assume it did. Well, after that, i did an update and decided to run search again and it found the exact same problems except for one so 59 total.

    What's the deal?

    Thanks

    George

    Spybot 1.5 is the current version. Consider upgrading.

    It would help if you posted the log of the actual detections you are getting. To do that:
    • Run another scan.
    • When the scan completes, right click on the results list, select "Copy results to clipboard".
    • Then paste (Ctrl+V) those results to a new post in this thread.

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.

    I don't mind upgrading though but I was curious why this happens and if there is something I don't understand.

    Spybot 1.5 can immunize Firefox whereas Spybot 1.4 could not.

    Spybot 1.4 sometimes has trouble removing Firefox tracking cookies. There are suggestions in the following post on how to remove them as well as block them from being stored in the future:


    There is also another discussion about FireFox tracking cookies (3rd party cookies) in the following thread:

    Alright, I'll try the newer version and see if that'll take care of it but I kinda screwed something up last night so I may have to go back to a much older configuration on the computer...oh well

    Thanks
