    Default help with reinstalling

    Windows XPSp2 (NT)
    I am trying to reinstall Spybot,I did once the .reg file fix,and I need to know is it safe to do it again,since I'm getting the same Error/Warning message again.

    Thanks!

    Yes it is.

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.


    Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition running on a 2.40GHz IntelŪ PentiumŪ 4 Processor with 512 MB of RAM and a 533 MHz System Bus.

    the wierd thing is that I have .reg file from Safer Networking downloaded as .reg file
    and when I try to download from my computer it comes out like text for making one
    Do you know why this happens?

    If I click on a .reg file,while using Firefox,I just see the text of the .reg(while surfing,not after it's downloaded).Are you using Firefox?If I want a .reg,I rightclick and select Save Link As.

    If the .reg comes out as text after you have it downloaded,I saw something at Doug Knox's that opens .reg files as text,for a safety precaution.Know if you used anything like that?

    Also,I find sometimes .reg files get the extension .reg.txt on XP,too.
