Hi I have used Spybot several years ago on a former computer and have found myself in a predicament where I have picked up something taking control of my browser. OK I installed your most recent version of spybot and I now have the following : a window with blue band at top titled "Resident" it has a time stamp and says in bold "Process terminated Identified as: User decision

then in regular print

Resident terminated the process nuwtpbwf.exe because it was on the black list.

----

the window starts in the bottom right of my desktop and repeats 5 times rolling up the screen.

ok

How do I get this to stop?

Thank you

your friend

Hello,

That is the resident TeaTimer - the realtime protection of Spybot - Search & Destroy - which has items blacklisted in order to block the baddies from getting in.

Please read this information about TeaTimer:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/33.html
and http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/34.html
If you surf the web and without any user interaction the teatimer pops up and warns about a registry change it is better to "deny", but if you install something by yourself it is OK to "allow" the change.

Best regards
Sandra
