sorry-may be regular question

[nebbard]

Updated yesterday,but on installation got "wouldn't update" messages for cha.dll; fenel.dll and mate.dll.

Does this indicate something nasty; is there any fix, please?

nebbard:

I assume you mean Chai.dll, Fennel.dll and Mate.dll. They are anti-rootkit plugins use by SpybotSD.exe during scans.

What version of Spybot - Search & Destroy are you running (Spybot » Help » About)?

[nebbard]

yes;sorry, my tryping is normally better than that.
ver 1.60.31

[nebbard]

or better still 1.6.0.31

nebbard:

Go to the following Web page:

• Downloads - The home of Spybot-S&D!
  http://www.spybot.info/en/download/index.html

Download and execute following item (spybotsd_plugins.exe). Note: Exit Spybot (SpybotSD.exe) before you execute spybotsd_plugins.exe:

• Anti rootkit plugins© 1.0 - product description
  md5: EE7278BC89D4557CFD7127EACC37EE70
  
  Supported only for version 1.5.2 or above!
  This adds improved capabilities to find rootkits. Only needed if you do not want to use the update function integrated into Spybot-S&D.

The direct download link is:

• http://www.spybotupdates.com/files/spybotsd_plugins.exe

__________

After you have executed the above program (spybotsd_plugins.exe), using Windows Explorer navigate to the following folder:

• C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Plugins

The folder should contain the following:

• Chai.dll
• Fennel.dll
• Mate.dll
• TCPIPAddress.dll
