Spybot SLOWED IE8.m I un installed Spybot and now ALL of the bars in IE8 are BLACK. What has happened to this great product? This has happened to me on DIFFERENT PC’s and LAPTOPS. I just discovered the cause. Plus it really slowed browsing and downloads. Why? I cannot figure out why Spybot messed things up like this. Maybe the Updates from the other sites caused it. Messed up XP and Vista as well. This product has been great for years. What happened? Spybot is interfering with other programs from opening. I am having to reformat my PC’s because of Spybot SD.:sad:
I am not sure. Last night I Spybot found 162 problems, fixed 150 and now my windows is out.

Please remember do undo changes you did with Spybot like undo the immunization.
