I've just downloaded spybot and have opened it to run as "Administrator." Have downloaded any updates but when I immunize, it shows 0 protected for all lists. I have IE8, Vista 32bit. Have searched the formun but found no answers for this problem. Any help out there? Thanks...

Hello,
We are sorry that there is a problem with IE8 and the Immunization of Spybot.
Spybot - Search & Destroy adds sites to the restricted zones during the immunization.
IE8 is proving every entry that is added to the restricted zones, so this is causing a hang of the software.
Microsoft has released an update on the 9th of June which should fix this problem.
So please make sure that you have installed the latest windows updates on your pc.
If this does not help we can only recommend to undo the immunization.
Please have a look at the news on our homepage: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/news/2009-03-25.html

Hello,
Thanks for your help!
I tried to download the update in Microsoft, as you suggested, but got a age that it wasn't compatible with and/or didn't apply to my system!?! Due to this, or course, it wouldn't download it...Wonder what's going on?
