Is "System settings protection" a part of TeaTimer? That's the impression I got from "more information" after sending error report following "needs to close" message brought on by opening installer for new AdAware released today. Happened twice, one from Lavasoft, the other from MajorGeeks.

What was the exact message given please.


Happened twice, one from Lavasoft, the other from MajorGeeks. :scratch:

Edit: I see, you tried the installer from two different sites.

Sorry for the delay. I had to reboot to get TeaTimer back. Downloaded AdAware for 3rd time, trying to re-create the problem.

Okay, Wize Inst Wizard extracted files, then as soon as installation began, "System settings protector has encountered a problem and needs to close" appeared.
See attached screenshots for details

Wow, that was a waste of time. The full-size shots are legible. Can I email them to you?

Yes, please send the screenshots to detections(AT)spybot.info (Replace AT with @) and provide a link back to this topic please.

If others receive this error when trying to install the new version of AAW, no doubt it will be reported in their own forums.

Email sent. I closed browsers and email client for first two installs, but didn't bother for #3, another one from Lavasoft/Cnet.

I see M$oft still thinks Spybot S&D is a product of PepiMK Software (screenshot 4)


:rolleyes: KW
