Problems in Spybot S&D Includes-trojanC

[krishmura11]

Hello,

I am using Spybot S&D for over 4 years now without any problems. I am using only Spybot S&D 1.4 Version as 1.5.2 at the time of Installation, starts Downloading further Files which is Dead slow and so far I am not successful.

From the last 5 days after I downloading latest updates of 17/19 April, 2008, I am getting a Dialogue Box(Warning) at the fag end of Scanning(When I svan my Computer with Spybot S&D, almost when the scanning is about to complete)which says that there are problems in Includes/TrojanC file or some thing like that. I Uninstalled Spybot and again Downloaded it afresh and installed it and updated and immunised it. Then I started Scanning and again at the fag end of Scanning, I am getting the same warning. I repeated Uninstalling and again Installing for 3 Times, but that waning keeps coming.

What should I do?

hello,

this is an issue related to new detection rules which are not compatible with Spybot S&D 1.4 , however this will not hamper the current working of Spybot S&D 1.4. The best way to deal with this is to update to Spybot S&D 1.5.2.

Edit:
please download all plugins for Spybot 1.5.20, the TCP/IP settings plugin is not enough.

Edit 2:
to be more precisely, install the root kit plugin, if you have Spybot S&D 1.5.2 , do not install it if your version is earlier

Hi Yodama,

Thanks for the prompt reply. I very much want to upgrade to Spybot S&D 1.5.2.but not able to. But I am ver happy to know that "however this will not hamper the current working of Spybot S&D 1.4.". This means that inspit of getting that waning my Spybot is doing its duty and my Computer is safe.

Thanks

I have to stay with 1.4 for now too, Krish. 1.5.2 slows me down too much.

Lancer I agree with you re: 1.5 too slow caused me problems.

One would think the brilliant team behind Spybot S&D could tinker with 1.4 so as to make 1.4 compatible with latest detection rules.

I thank krishmura11 for bringing this topic up as I have been very concerned.

For Yodama thanks for helping the people who ask questions.
I would like to know despite this warning window about Trojans on 1.4. Is my computer safe? Is the scanning looking for everything?
If 1.5.2 had been workable I would use it but 1.4 has been a joy and works well on my older computer.

I'm in the same boat with v1.4, with one more problem - the first time I got this error (right after I updated), I also actually had a trojan. It said that I should remove it and disconnect from the internet while I reboot, since it attached something to XP's 'login' as well.

I followed Spybot's instructions, since it has never lead me astray before, and running it again says that there are now no problems found, but I wanted to confirm that everyone else is getting *two* errors about trojans when they run the updated v1.4 - one more than 3/4 of the way through and one right at the end. I hope that's what everyone's getting, because that's what I'm getting on my second computer that hopefully wasn't infected (but is on my network)...
