When I start Spybot I receive a message that application has failed to start because framedyn.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may bix this problem.

I reinstalled Spybot, but still received the same message. I click OK and Spybot will start as normal. What do I need to do?

What Windows OS are you running?

What version of Spybot - Search & Destroy are you running (Spybot » Help » About)?

If you are getting a message while starting Spybot indicating "This application has failed to start because framedyn.dll was not found .....", the problem is usually caused by a bad path to the Framedyn.dll file rather than a missing Framedyn.dll file. Please read the following Microsoft Knowledge base article:
