I used Spybot first time today and after scan i tried to fix the problems it found, It started running the removal and after awhile i got error "Access Violation at Address 00505EBC in module SpybotSD.exe, Read of address 7868746D". I tried to shutdown Spybot it doesnt want to shutdown and gets stuck in "unloading registry files or something". Running Windows Vista 64bit with its own Firewall and the newest spybot 1.6.2.

Hello,

Seems like you have a damaged advcheck.dll.

Please uninstall Spybot - Search & Destroy according to the following link (http://www.safer-networking.org/faq/how-to-uninstall/).
Then make a fresh install of Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.6.2 (http://www.spybotupdates.com/files/spybotsd162.exe).

Make sure that you also delete this folders and all files in it:
C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\

Please note that the Application Data Folder is hidden. So if you can't find this folder please check your folder properties.

Best regards
