I'm not quite sure where I should post this. None of the other forums seemed to match...
I thought you'd like to know that Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 flags Spybot - Search and Destroy as being incompatible with it. I personally think it's a load of bull, since I trust Kaspersky's behavior detection enough to not run TeaTimer. Unlike Eset's NOD, Kaspersky won't let you install if there are "incompatible" anti-malware programs installed. There is no ignore option, etc.
I intend to reinstall Spybot as soon as I have kaspersky installed, so this doesn't affect me. Kaspersky does not make an ass out of itself like norton does, and is actually an excellent product. It dies when you tell it to uninstall, etc. I don't know why they would flag spybot like this, but I thought it should be brought to your attention.
