    Default Spybot does not work

    Hi there I was wondering if someone can help me please.

    I can t Check for problems when using Spybot. After clicking the Check for problems button I receive the following message:

    You need to install the dtetction updates first by using the integrated update or the manual updater.

    I have tried to remove the Spybot from my Dell 9300 with XP Home but I receive the following message error:

    File "C\Program Files\Spybot - Search &Destroy\ unins000.dat" soes not exist. Cannot unistall.

    I have Spybot Search & Destroy 1.4 but I am trying to uninstalling for then installing it again.

    Any suggestions???

    Regards
    Max :-)

    Hi Max,

    1) Do you use Spybot-S&D 1.4? You can check this in the main menu -> help-> about.
    2) Is your Spybot-S&D up to date?
    3) Please check under settings -> settings -> Automation -> Web Update if "Remind me to look for updates at program start"
    4) Are you somehow able to scan your system with Spybot-S&D ignoring that message? If not please reconstruct the error message, make a screenshot of it and send it to webmaster@spybot.info

    Check your INCLUDES folder in S&D. (For *.SBI files and delete them).

    Delete all files from the UPDATE folder.

    Start S&D.
    Click on the "Search for Updates" button.
    (You must be connected to the NET).
    Select all available updates.
    Click the "Download available updates" button.
