View Full Version : system settings protector has stopped working
I get this message: "system settings protestor has stopped working" after booting the system and after some use. Tea Timer goes down after this message.
I'm running vista x64 sp2.

Has there been a solution to this problem? I also receive that error message.

Hello,
Which version of Spybot do you run?
Do you have installed any other security application?
Best regards

I just got the same problem on 15 July 09. I got a notice to update from 1.6.0 to 1.6.2 and during this process I got the system Settings Protector has stopped working error. I also got, "tcpipaddress.dll delete file failed" so I had to abort the update process. :sad:

Hello,
We recommend a fresh install of Spybot - Search & Destroy.
Please uninstall Spybot - Search & Destroy according to the following link (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/howto/uninstall.html).
Then make a fresh install of Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.6.2.
You will find links to several download locations (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html) on our website.
Or choose the direct installation file (http://www.spybotupdates.com/files/spybotsd162.exe).
