• 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.

Undo Immunisation?

Hi, I want to uninstall Spybot. I remember something like that it's necessary to undo the immunisation before uninstalling. But I can't find how to do it. It doesn't say so in the tutorial, but I want to be sure to do it the right way. Can someone give me clarity on this?
My Spybot version is 1.6.2.46 and I have XP.
Thanks for the help.
 
Hi Guingion,

Try that:

  • Close ALL internet browsers
  • Open Spybot
  • On the left side, click on "Immunize"
  • Click on the undo botton

Information for uninstall:
How to uninstall

hope that helps...
 
Remember also to uncheck SDHelper and teatimer (if checked) before uninstalling Spybot:

Spybot, advanced mode, Tools, resident.
 
Thanks for your reply. I failed to mention that I did all that already. But now I realised that I had to select all the items in the list (stupid me!). Anyway, after I selected everything it worked out allright.
I want to install Microsoft Security Essentials and the instruction tells me to uninstall all antispyware software. So I'm gonna follow the instruction just for safety.
