re: spybotsd_advcheck.exe

I don’t know what is preventing access to the advcheck.dll. The only thing that I can suggest is to:

1. Disable Teatimer:
   
   • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident
     • Uncheck (if checked) the following:
       Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.
2. Reboot your system.
3. Execute spybotsd_advcheck.exe.
4. Re-enable Teatimer:
   
   • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident
     • Check (if unchecked) the following:
       Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.

re: Update.exe

I am not sure exactly what Update.exe does or when/if it is executed. From the comments within the program:

• Für Updates, die nur bei beendeten Spybot-S&D möglich sind. (For updates, which are possible with terminated Spybot S&D only.)

This is pure speculation, but from the comments it may be the program that is used with updates such as the one referenced in the following threads:

• DOS Based Installer?

• Spybot closes itself after updates

Go into Spybot > Update (left pane) > on the Update screen click the "Show log" button (right pane). Are there any downloads shown for:

• mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss xM Downloaded update info file.
  (http://www.safer-networking.org/updates/spybotsd.ini)

If there is no indication that that file is being downloaded, then the integrated update facility is not working.

Hello,

That worked for the updated advcheck.dll.

The update seemed to work yesterday.

Thanks,
David
