Hello everyone!

I've found that with the 1.5+ version of Spybot the /taskbarhide option causes the spybotsd.exe process to error out with the following error:


Event Type: Error
Event Source: Application Error

I've tried this on a few machines with the same results.

The machines are all Windows XP SP2. I do not have the same issue with Spybot 1.4.

Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

I checked on a windows 2000 machine and also receive the same error.

Can anyone verify that the same issue is happening to them?

Here is the exact commands I run to get these errors:

spybotsd.exe /autocheck /autofix /autoclose /taskbarhide
spybotsd.exe /autoupdate /autoclose /taskbarhide

I've tried all different orders of the commands.

If I leave out the /taskbarhide the application error does not occur.

Thank you!

I'm moving this to the beta forum, and will have a look at it soon :)

Please try SpybotSD.exe-1.5.2.20-2008-01-10.zip (http://www.safer-networking.org/files/beta/SpybotSD.exe-1.5.2.20-2008-01-10.zip) :)

Btw, the error even happens with typos, so it's quicker than waiting for a full scan or update:

spybotsd.exe /autochtypo /autoclose /taskbarhide

Looks good so far on my Win XP machine. I'm going to test on a Windows 2000 machine as well to verify.

Thank you so much!
