I downloaded the new version and have the shortcut on my desktop like always. Everytime I click to open it...instead of getting the interface of the program, I get what appears to be the download file offering to Run or Save. If I click on Run, then the Program Interface opens. What is going on. Others I have talked to by email that have downloaded it say this is not happening to them. This is my first post so hope I can find the answer on return. :sad:

That is a just a warning that the program was added or modified, not installed.

Just click the Run button to start Spybot - Search & Destroy.

If you do not what the warning dialog to appear each time you start Spybot - Search & Destroy, uncheck the following before clicking the RUN button:
Always ask before opening this file
