immunization requires browser be closed

[kgirot58]

Suggestion for developers: I understand the browser should be closed, but it mostly stays open all the time. It would be nice if there were an option that would close any open browsers before immunizing so the process doesn't just hang there. If that option exists, I haven't found it. Using v1.6 and I love it!!

thanks,
Kenny

Do you mean like closing it automatically for you? In Spybot-SD 1.6.0.30, it warns you that the browsers are open when you attempt to immunize. You can post this in the Suggestions' forum.

Yes, automatically close the browser before immunizing. Make it an option that can be turned on/off since some people may not want the browser to be closed.

Where is the suggestions forum?

Sure, I can respect that. The suggestions forum is in Spybot-SD Beta: http://forums.spybot.info/forumdisplay.php?f=12

You can't miss it.

Suggestion for "immunization requires browser closed"

Am running v1.6 and so far love it. I have it scheduled to update, immunize, and scan at night. If I leave a browser open, it hangs there with the message that open browsers must be closed or immunization may not work. Suggest that you give the user the option to automatically close all open browsers so immunization can complete. The ability to turn this on/off would allow users to choose.

Thanks,
Kenny

You can specify /silent (http://wiki.spybot.info/index.php//silent) (or the "bigger" /taskbarhide (http://wiki.spybot.info/index.php//taskbarhide)) on the command line to skip this warning :)
