I recently downloaded this product a week ago and it worked great up until today, i click on the program, it checks temporary files for like 1 sec., thin it says loading but only goes 1/4 of the way and minimizes ON TOP of the taskbar with only the exit button showing.:sad:

Please rightclick the Spybot s&d icon,and select properties.Beside Run:,is it set to minimized?

Ok,that was happening to me as well once,and I didn't have that set,but I cannot remember how I solved it.

Aha,it did that when set back to normal window.Was Spybot ever set to be minimized before?Please rightclick properties,then beside Run:,select Maximize.Click apply and then OK.To try it out try opening Spybot now,is it maximized?

You're welcome. :)
If you prefer Spybot not maximized,you can rightclick Spybot,select properties,then in the Run: box select Normal Window.Mine went back to normal window okay after having it maximized.Or,you can leave it if you prefer maximized,of course. :)
