I had Spybot 1.52 installed and it would not run at all. I removed it and tried to install Spybot 1.6 and it will not install. I have tried in safe mode and not in safe mode and no change. Other programs install fine. I have installed AVG 8, Ad-Aware 2008 among others with no issues. I already did a repair windows install and have scanned and cleaned the computer with AVG 8 and Ad-Aware but I still can not install Spybot 1.52 or 1.6 Any ideas?

Here is Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.0 (BETA)

Welcome to Safer Networking, I wish to be sure you have viewed and understand this information.
"BEFORE you POST" (READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance)
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
All advice given is taken at your own risk.
Please make sure you have read this information so we are on the same page.

I really need to point out this:
Do NOT run 'FIXES' before helpers have analyzed the HJT log
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=16806

which caused this:

Posting additional comments or logs before a volunteer responds, can push you back instead of forward, because your thread ends up with a newer date. Also, helpers may think you are already being assisted because of the post count. The same applies to bumping, please don't.

It appears, since the HJT log is out of date, that you never read the directions? If you still need help, read them and post a new HJT log using version 2.0.2 described in the directions. If you do not respond, I will close this topic in 48 hours.

Thanks

This is fixed.... I was able to install spybot by changing the name of the .exe
This allowed the install to run and then I was able to scan the machine.
It is all back to normal now.
