Hello,

Which error message do you get exactly?
Probably "ERROR SENDING REQUEST. THE SERVER NAME OR ADDRESS COULD NOT BE RESOLVED" because you have no internet access?

During the installation Spybot tries to download the updates.
You can disable this function in the wizard itself.
Just untick the check box in front of "download updates during installation" or "Download Updates immediately".
The updates can be downloaded later on.

For more information on updating please have a look at this link (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/howto/update.html) on our website.
You can also download the updates manually (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html).
Here is the direct download link (http://www.spybotupdates.com/updates/files/spybotsd_includes.exe).
Just download and run that file - it is self-installing.
