I'm running Windows 7 and Firefox. When I do a scan Spybot goofs up my bank login. How can I stop it from doing that ? Thank you :)

Hello TelescopeGlass,

Sorry to hear of the problem, which version of Spybot S&D do you have installed?

https://www.safer-networking.org/compare-spybot-editions/

As a Windows user you probably know that Windows 7 is no longer supported by Microsoft and thus does not receive security updates/patches or technical support?

It might make on-line bank transactions that much more vulnerable to malware.

For Tashi: I don't know what version it is because it doesn't say. There should be a law that forces those who create software to

state which version it is since they're so impolite.

To check your Spybot - Search & Destroy edition:


Open the Spybot Start Center.
Click on Show Details in the bottom right corner of the Start Center.
Under the Spybot logo on the top left corner of the Start Center, you should see the Spybot edition written in blue writing.
If you are a licensed user you should also have +ANTIVIRUS written in red writing.

I forgot to say that Spybot also messed up my login to gmail. Might as well uninstall it and stop donating

Whenever I use Spybot I get locked out of Gmail. Does that mean Gmail REALLY IS SPYWARE ?:mad:
