I know im not supose to give help here without any permission but what ill say here will not do any bad thing.

Spybot 1.4 doesnt work on windows 95.
If you have a compatible windows version try downloading it again from the spybot website and try to install it again.
For you it would be in here...

Hi CRAZYHYPA.

What is your Operating System and which version of Spybot-S&D did you have before.

Did you uninstall it following these instructions:

Uninstalling Previous Spybot-S&D (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/27.html)
Or install over the top of the old version.

Also where is the windows security pop up coming from?
Microsoft's Anti Spyware program?

Cheers. :)

OK, sorry i'm in late...
Thanks for your help Tashi !

First, I checked out "Uninstalling Previous Spybot-S&D" & following instructions and I juss retried to install Spybot and it's still the same, I can't :s

OK, so :

I use Windows XP sp2
I try to install Spybot 1.4 (the same than before when that worked fine)
Forget about the windows security pop up, i dont see it anymore...i don't know why...But the prob isn't there.
When i try to run "spybotsd14.exe" (install file) i see the window where you can choose the language, I choose French (as me), i juss have the time to see the next window (Installation - Spybot - Search & Destroy) and that still disappears!!!!!!!!!!!

SO WHAT CAN I DO NOW PLEASE?

CRAZYHYPA hi. :)

Please go here and follow instructions.
Before you post a log, and who will advise you. (http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288)

Start a topic here:
Malware Forum (http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=22[/url)

Post the HiJackThis (HJT) and Panda logs into your topic; they will probably need two or more posts to get them all in. No problem. ;)

Then someone will then take a look at the system and advise you as soon as available to do so.

Cheers.
