Hi cartime,

:welcome: to Safer Networking Forums. :)

Did you un-install Spybot 1.4 before installing Spybot 1.6.2 ? I always recommend that.

I would like you to download Spybot 1.6.2 from here (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/ownmirrors1/index.html). Then un-install Spybot completely (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/howto/uninstall.html) from your computer, reboot, and install Spybot 1.6.2. Do you now still have problems?

Can you give us more details?
Which other security tools do you have installed on your computer?
Do you have Sings of Malware (http://www.virusvault.us/signs1.html)?
