• Welcome Guest, to the Spybot Forums! It's 2025, and we just upgraded our forum software.

    Today is Safer Internet Day, and with our new forum, you can finally use passkeys to login. That was about time!

    Of course, you could ask if a forum is still useful, with so many social media networks out there where you might already have an account, and met a lot of users. You can now use your login from some of those networks to log in here. And by posting here, your question and data is stored on our servers and not automatically shared with a whole social media network.

    We'll also start using the forum for small bits of information, announcements and more again.

Since running spybot everytime I log onto ebay i get pop ups about Double Click and no matter how many times I say I don't want to block the download it still happens every time I go to a new page
 
Since you don't want to block the download of the DoubleClick third party (or tracking) cookie the only thing that you can do to stop the messages is to turn off Spybots BHO download blocker. If that is what you really want to do:
  • Go into Spybot > Immunize
    • Click "Undo" button (at the top)
    • Uncheck (if checked) the following:
      "Enable permanent blocking of bad addresses in Internet Explorer"

If you want to eliminate these messages and still block the download of tracking cookies, there are two actions that you can take:
  1. Go into Spybot-S&D > Immunize. Look in the last section labeled "Permanently running bad download blocker for Internet Explorer". In the pull-down below "Enable permanent blocking of bad addresses in Internet Explorer" there are three options:
    • Block all pages silently
    • Display dialog when blocking
    • Ask for blocking confirmation
    Select "Block all pages silently".

  2. Follow the instructions in the following article and prevent the download of any third party cookies in your browser:
