View Full Version : What is wrong with this *&%$## program NOW?
I just have a HD format (again) due to some mORon claming to be a 'puter repair business with 3) locations.
I usually install my protective programs 1st.
SpyBot is BACK to locking up my nicely cleaned machine.
Is this thing just fubared and not WORTH installing anymore or what?
Kind of getting sick & tired of trying to make this program NOT lock up my 'puter.
DOES ANYONE HAVE A SOLUTION?
As best asI can recall: spybot problems have going on for over 6 weeks!
Sign me: frustrated & weary of this nonsense.

Well, good suggestion and I am prone to get a but hasty when I'm fed up with Certified Micro$oft repair places have to format my drives after losing a year's worth of email in Outlook 2002.
The first thing I did when I got it home was install Windows XP/home w/SP-2 (again), made certain Windows protective devices were turned on, dowloaded the updates, installed and ran Windows Defender, AVG with the latest update and finally: SpyBot.
Stalled & locked my machine up, even in safe mode.
I just don't get it, obviously.
It runs fine on my piece of Dell laptop with XP Pro.
