Cannot find Tea-timer in Sybot & Destroy

[jaydee888]

Recently, I took a look at the Tools of Spybot & Destroy to see if Tea-timer is there or not. I realized that Tea-timer is nowhere to be found.

Can someone tell me what had happened to Tea-timer?

Thanks in advance.

Teatimer should be located at Mode->Advanced Mode->Tools->Resident,then over to the right you should see Resident "Teatimer." listed,with the option to place a checkmark next to it,to enable it.

What does the Teatimer do?

I was told in another forum that the Teatimer does the same things as Winpatrol.

Does the Teatimer protects the Registry changes as well as inform you of any changes to the Startup items?

Hi jaydee888,

Thanks for the info.

So, the Teatimer does protect some critical Registry keys.
For someone not knowledgeable with Registry keys, most probably will click Allow the change.
