    Default spybot 1.6 in windows 98SE?

    Maybe this is a dumb question, but I have searched in several sections and didn't find information.

    Can the new spybot version run in Windows 98SE or will I have problems then?

    p.s. I just installed version 1.6 on my XP Home (SP3) and ran it. It did fine, not too long, no interruptions like before. This makes me HAPPY!

    Yes, Spybot-SD 1.6.0.30 is fully functional with Windows 98SE.

    The dumb question is the one not asked.

    No problem, if you scroll down in the link it will say "Windows 98" is supported, although it doesn't specify Second Edition, it is included.

    I've upgraded on windows 98 as have some others

    if you ever had 1.2 or 1.4 on your system
    do a complete uninstall
    unimmunize
    turn off sdhelper and t-timer
    remove from add-remove programs
    run the small-fix use search to find it
    it's on the spybot removal stickie but i'm not at my machine now so I do not remember which forum
    reboot

    install 1.6
