    Question Spybot install fails on computer w/out internect connection

    Hello, all:

    First time post. Please bear w/ me.

    Is it possible to install spybot on a computer that has its internet connection disabled? I've placed the installation binary on the box and the installation fails when it tries to resolve www.safer-networking.org's address. Any way to bypass this and simply do a localized install?

    - thx

    Hello,

    During the installation Spybot tries to download the updates.
    You can disable this function in the wizard itself.
    Just untick the checkbox in front of "download updates during installation".
    The updates can be downloaded later on.

    For more information on updating please have a look at this link on our website:
    http://www.safer-networking.org/en/howto/update.html
    You can also download the updates manually:
    http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html
    Here is the direct download link.
    Just download and run that file - it is self-installing.

    Best regards
