I am newbie here. Don't know if this the right place to ask tech question. When I uninstall a program (winXP OS), SB res popup window warns of reg change, but bottom right side of options is blanked out. Cannot choose any option but remember and X close window. Resident denies change to reg. Any advice welcome - even if it's to take my question elsewhere - point me in the right direction if this is the wrong place to ask.:confused: :confused:

Hello,
This is a little bug in version 1.4. We have already been able to locate and fix it. The fix will be downloadable with our next program upgrade. We hope that it will be available soon.
As a current solution you can work with your keyboard. Use the cursor keys to switch between the buttons ("Allow" is on the left, "Deny" on the right) and the space key to enter your selection. You can also press "A" on your keyboard for "Allow change" or "D" for "Deny change". The Checkbox for "Remember this decision" will work correctly in spite of the graphical issue. If you don't like to use the above workarounds you can disable TeaTimer as follows:
- Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident.
- Uncheck the following: Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.
